[Verse 1] Over Elgin avenue A helium balloon Disappears into the sky You give some money To a junkie Watch as the sunny day drifts by Can't tell you why [Verse 2] You said you loved me And I kind of believe that But these days, who knows what it means So we sat by the laundrette With magazines and cigarettes Talked about a million other things [Chorus] These are the last words I'll say to you These are the last words I'll say to you [Verse 3] I never saw the world look the way The city looked to me today I never thought the end would come this way [Chorus] [Bridge] Last night I dreamt that somebody had died And it was one of us I did the biggest thing that I could But it was not enough [Chorus] These are the last words I will say to you
