The Last Time Songtext
von Mike and the Moonpies

I held you so high above
Thought that′s where you should be
But you lost your head in the clouds
And lost sight of me
Said I was your only one
Then ran to everyone else
I'm just a book that you love to read
When you pull it from the shelf

That′s the last time I go out of my way
To stand in front of your kiss
The last time I quietly lay
Under your fingertips
The last time I hold you close
Just to say we are friends
The last time I'll be there for you
Until you need me again


So go ahead and judge this old fool
But you won't see me cry
I′ve got the softest of wool
Pulled over my eyes
I can swallow my pride
And I can shrug off my pain
But I can′t leave you behind
When you call out my name

And I feel a little numb and dumb
But that's my fault
When you know you′re gonna land on your head
Have fun with the fall
(One, two, three, four)

That's the last time I go out of my way
To stand in front of your kiss
The last time I quietly lay
Under your fingertips
The last time I hold you close
Just to say we are friends
The last time I′ll be there for you
Until you need me again
The last time I'll be there for you
Until you need me again
