Like an old abandoned ferriswheel
|
Time for me is standin' still
|
And it's you and me in mid July
|
Underneath the midway lights
|
And all our friends are standing there
|
So I was actin' like I didn't care
|
When you put your arms around my neck
|
And I barely even kissed you back
|
|
But if I'da have known it was the last time
|
I'da held on a little longer
|
And let that moment linger
|
And never let your fingers slip away from mine
|
If I'da known there'd never be another day
|
I'da watched you as you walked away
|
And kept you in my eyes till you were out of sight
|
If I, If I'da known it was the last time
|
|
Now the midway lights have all shut down
|
And grass has grown up all around
|
It's an empty field across the track
|
But I can't keep from coming back
|
It was just another summer night
|
Carousel and rollercoaster ride
|
And that silly fight that we got in
|
Didn't seem so important then
|
|
But if I'da known it was the last time
|
I'da held on a little longer
|
And let that moment linger
|
And never let your fingers slip away from mine
|
If I'da known there'd never be another day
|
I'da watched you as you walked away
|
And kept you in my eyes till you were out of sight
|
If I, If I'da known it was the last time
|
|
And if I'da known then, what I know now
|
I'd never let you disappear into the crowd
|
Or turn away the way I did
|
With so much left unsaid
|
If I, If I'da known it was the last time
|

The Last Time
