The Last Time.

We were fire from the start
Living life from fight to fight
And I know that there’s no way
That we could ever make it right
Always trudging through the dark
Hoping we’d someday find the light
Always being just beyond
One another’s sight
But here we are and it’s the end
And there’s nothing left to say
We kept holding onto water
As we slowly slipped away
From everything that connected us
Besides the day to day
And I know it’s right to leave
But, God, I wish you’d stay
So hold me like you’ve always done
And we’ll pretend this one last time
That all the rocks and uphill roads
Were always worth the climb
We’ll look into each other’s eyes
And drink one last glass of wine
I’d rather do that than fight with you
Let’s just pretend we’re fine
Because we both know this is it
Let’s not spend it placing blame
It doesn’t matter who’s at fault
It would just end up the same
Let’s eat and laugh and watch t.v.
Not create some brand new pain
Sometimes the bravest thing to do
Is decide to walk away
I don’t want to be sad tonight
We’ve cried all that’s left to cry
Rivers have flowed from both our eyes
And now they’ve all run dry
Hold me and connect our breaths
In sync with every yawn and sigh
At least now that it’s the end
We can’t say we didn’t try
I know it’s almost time to go
If I stayed it would be a lie
So all that’s left to say to you
Is I’ve loved you and goodbye
