The Last to Know
On the tip of her tongue
Dancing words in complex meter
Unwilling to be set to verse
So if everyone here knew you were going soon
Why let me be the last to know?
What do I make of our time together
If you thought to leave without letting me know
Heavy weights and snuffed lights
Behind those beautiful grey eyes
The most unwelcome surprise
If everyone here knew you were going soon
Why let me be the last to know?
What do I make of our time together
If you thought to leave without letting me know
Did you think me too weak to stand your words
Knowing the hell we've both known
Did you think yourself not strong enough
To look me in the eye and tell me why
Did you really think I wouldn't want to know?
So if everyone here knew you were going soon
Why let me be the last to know?
What do I make of our time together
If you thought to leave without letting me know
Why let me be
Why let me be the last to know?
