This is the last song that was ever written After this, nothing will rhyme This is the last time that you'll ever see us After this, you're gonna go blind This is the last time that there'll be a last time You'll wake up to the day without it This is the last time that you're gonna lose someone After this, it's you and your friends It's you and your friends This is the last song that was ever written Melody is over and done All of the words we sing erase each other
You only need songs when you're young There was a strange goodbye outside the station There was a letter three weeks later in the mail We didn't know we knew you 'til we lost you You tried to leave us all alone, we wish you had failed We're gonna sing a song without words And a tune you haven't heard in a long time Not since the year you were two And she sang to you in the wintertime And it goes la la la la
