Why's it so hard to look me in the eye? Playing with that cross that's on your chain I know you only ever bite your lip When it's something you're afraid to say Is this the last time that I lay my eyes upon you? Is this the last time that I ever watch you leave? This is the last thing I would ever have done to ya This is the last thing that I thought you'd do to me We said that it would last, but how come it's the last time? I'm tryna hold your hand but feeling like my hand's tied You said we'd be forever, now you never ever be mine (oh-oh-oh) You said that it would last, but how come it's the last time? You practiced leaving many times before But I guess you get it right today Leaving that ring I gave you in the drawer But you taking every single part of me Is this the last time that I lay my eyes upon you? Is this the last time that I ever watch you leave? This is the last thing I would ever have done to ya This is the last thing that I thought you'd do to me We said that it would last, but how come it's the last time? (Oh-oh-oh) I'm tryna hold your hand but feeling like my hand's tied (oh-oh-oh) You said we'd be forever, now you never ever be mine (oh-oh-oh) You said that it would last, but how come it's the last time? Oh (oh-oh-oh) I think of the first kiss That lead to the first night Whoa, whoa I think of the first tiff That lead to the first fight Whoa, whoa Ooh You said that it would last, but how come it's the last time? I'm tryna hold your hand but feeling like my hand's tied, mm (oh-oh-oh) We always said we'd be forever, now you never ever be mine, ooh (oh-oh-oh) We said that it would last, but how come it's the last time? Oh, ooh (oh-oh-oh) I think of the first kiss That lead to the first night Whoa (first night), whoa (whoa) I think of the first tiff (the first tiff) That lead to the first fight Whoa, whoa, oh You said that it would last, but how come it's the last time?
