Last night
The last night of me and you
Tomorrow, you’ll walk away to something else
How could we know
The way this was bound to go?
Last night
The last night of me and you

It’s done now,
The story book comes to a close
It’s over, the fairytale we’ll never know
It wasn’t meant to end this way
But nothing I could do
Could make you stay
It’s done now
The story book comes to a close

I fell so easily
You’re not to blame
But now it’s so hard for me
To hear you say

So long,
Wish me luck and happiness
Cos I need to know you wish me nothing less.
But I’ll be the one
Whose love will go on.
So long
Wish me luck and happiness.
I know you do.

It’s done now.
The story book comes to a close.
The fairytale we’ll never know.

"Heartbreak isn’t beautiful. It isn’t ******* poetry, it’s not staying up ‘til 4 am listening to sad songs. It’s breaking down in the middle of a busy street. It’s seeing their face in all the people you pass by. It’s feeling okay for weeks at a time and then all of a sudden, you feel the ghost of their lips on your neck and their nails on your back and then you’re choking on memories of their presence. It’s waking up from dreams of them coming back and screaming in the middle of the night because your chest aches like a rotting tooth. Stop romanticizing pain. Stop using people like they’re objects. A heart isn’t a cigarette - you can’t just light it up and then stomp it out when you’re done. Don’t act like anything about heartbreak is beautiful, because I wouldn’t wish that feeling upon my worst of enemies."

Sit yourself down and listen awhile
You really got no place to go
But the look in your eyes says
‘Hold out your hand’
So let’s buy a ticket
It’ll be some kinda show

I danced with the jugglers
I ran on the wire
You watched, and you saw me fall
In the blink of an eye, you jumped to your feet
Then the lights went out
And they saw nothing at all

I dazzled the crowd
I took the applause
Then I wiped off the greasepaint
And reapplied yours
I watched from the sidelines as you took your bow
I gave you my world
But hey, won’t you look at me now?

I’ve danced for the last time
It’s all over now
But don’t you dare shead a tear
My time in the spotlight was short but ‘My God’
I burned like a fire
And survived it somehow

I dazzled the crowd
I took the applause
Then I wiped off the greasepaint
And reapplied yours
I watched from the sidelines as you took your bow
I gave you my world
But hey, won’t you look at me now

So here we are at the end of the show
The light come down one last time
The costumes and make up
Are safe in the trunk
I’ll hitch up the horses
And you can be on your way

I dazzled the crowd
I took the applause
Then I wiped off the greasepaint
And reapplied yours
I watched from the sidelines as you took your bow
I gave you my world
But hey, won’t you look at me now

Before we met
I lived my life, without the love that I should have known
Before we met
I threw away my time
Left far too many seeds unsown
Their was an ache I couldn’t deny
A space in my heart
I never tried to fill

Before we met
I wasted days thru wasted nights
Before we met
I searched in the dark
Before you became my light
I gave away the parts of me
That you somehow have retrieved
And now I stand up straight
Reassembled and complete

Before we met
I knew we’d love
I knew my heart would find it’s peace
I knew my soul would be released
I felt your arms, your touch, your breath.
I lay with you and gave my love
The love I saved
In a room in my heart.
The room that only you would know.
I kept it clean, and pure, you see
The better part of the ‘other me’.
I’ve waited alone in that room
For an eternity.
You were just outside the door.
And I felt you.
Forever,
before we met.

I’ve crossed the world a dozen times
By wing and wheel and wave
I’ve woken up in strange girl’s beds
Fallen asleep in caves

I’ve sung my songs in brothels
And watched rich men leaving poor
I’ve taken virtue in my home town
And I’ve taken it in your’s

Only that you came
But in every place I get to
Whether from below or above
I’ll ask the barman
‘Kindly sir’
For another shot
Another shot of love
Give me one more chance at love
Before my time has passed
I still believe she’ll come along
‘No need to wash my glass’
And if I end my time alone
And this guitar’s all I got
I’ll still be thankful for the life it gave
And for another shot

Only that you came
But in every place I get to
Whether from below or above
I’ll ask the barman
‘Kindly sir’
For another shot
Another shot of love

So here I stand
Breaking all the rules
The master of his plans
A special kind of fool.

I held her in my arms
And watched her love grow cool
My heart was safe from harm
A special kind of fool

I could have kept it to myself
And never brought her tears
I should have realised
That I’d throw away those years

The years we could have spent
In love not self regret
Just her and me with only us
But I went and lost the bet

At 2.22
I said goodbye to you.
I took one last, longing look
And closed down the book
You said goodbye and meant it
And i just sat and cried
'I'd taken your love and bent it
Till u had nothing left inside.'
So I'm
I'm Letting go of my dream
I'm Letting go of my life
I'm Letting go of the one thing
I shoulda held on to with all my might
I'm letting go
My angel
I'm letting go.
I'd waited an age
For you to turn the page
And when you finally held me
It was love for all to see
But bitterness and silence
Turned passion into pain
And stubborn assed defiance
Means we'll never love again
So I'm
I'm Letting go of my dream
I'm Letting go of my life
I'm Letting go of the one thing
I shoulda held on to with all my might
I'm letting go
My angel I'm letting go.
And the thought of you in someone's arms
Is tearing me apart
It's only you that I can see
So what do I tell my heart?
When my heart asks me
'Why?'
