The Last Time 2003-09-13

The sun is shining on the left, but the right side is missing a wing
The pilot says the minutes we have left are few
So, my apologies to all of those I left behind
For what I couldn't say, for what I didn't do.

I never thought the last time I said goodbye would be the last time
I never thought I'd never say I love you again
I always thought there would always be a next time
I always thought that forever meant with you

The cabin's losing pressure and it's getting harder to breathe
It reminds me of the first time that we kissed
My world is coming apart and all I can think about is you
All the chances I lost, all the opportunities I missed.

I never thought the last time I said goodbye would be the last time
I never thought I'd never say I love you again
I always thought there would always be a next time
I always thought that forever meant with you

The oxygen bag closes around me like a vice
The air is hot, but my blood is ice
We're at the part now where everybody dies
And all I want is to see you one more time

I never thought the last time I said goodbye would be the last time
I never thought I'd never say I love you again
I always thought there would always be a next time
I always thought that forever meant with you

I always thought that forever meant with you.
