Born on a tear
That seeps from the dagger shaped hole in your heart
Wounds that run deep
Well I'll try to patch them as best as I can
If the sun melts the black of the street
And the long road home sticks to your feet
When the music that frees you has all but been used up
Then I'll sing the last song for you
I hate to see your heart breaking
I'll hold it safe in my hands
I don't know if my words can bind it together
But that's all I know how to do
So I'll sing the last song for you
I ain't got much
That I can give you, to keep you afloat
Mumbled comforts
Are no use for wrestling demons, I know
But a lopsided smile and a lovesick recital
Might loosen the burden for now
The penultimate beat of the drum
As the second to last chord is strummed
When all other words have already been heard
I'll sing the last song for you
I'll sing the last song for you
I'll sing the last song for you
I'll sing the last song for you
( A )
Something everlast, happy, sad
something to remind you all the best you ever had
something magical, something tangible
something true, so true
through the restless night
drenched in pale moon light
A lullaby, to lie there by your side
Just you close your eyes
Dream of cloudly skies
Drift to sleep
Feel colors fall through your hands
And the evening tide poured ripples on the sand
As the sun goes down
And the stars come out
And the breeze, it sings
Twilight melodies
Put your mind at ease
Let the clutter fly, way from you tonight
And this lullaby
Will caress your eyes
Drift to sleep
And when the morning comes
And all your blue have gone
Think of me
