Famous Last Words
Intro:
Vs 1:
You say you heard every word, but I watched you turn away
Your eyes grew colder than winter
"Love is so intrusive," I thought I heard you say
and laugh so unconvincingly
Chorus 1:
(Famous last words) Famous last words,
"I'm not ready yet"
"I won't be gone a minute"
Vs 2:
Narrow is the road and too high a price to pay
when loneliness is such a sanctuary.
Empty are the musings and wasted are the days
when you say you were only waiting
Chorus 2:
(Famous last words) And famous last words,
"I'm not ready yet"
"I won't be gone a minute" and I won't forget
Famous last words
If tomorrow never comes, will I ever know that I was in love?
I was in love
In love
Bridge:
You say you heard every word, I watched you turn away
You said you were only waiting
Chorus 3:
(Famous last words) And famous last words,
"I'm not ready yet"
"I won't be gone a minute" but I won't forget
Famous last words
If tomorrow never comes, will I ever know that I was in love?
that I was in love
(chorus 1)
