First And Last

And so this is a love song
The first and very last one that I'll ever write for you
The last thing that I'll give into
Cause you've known all along
I've always wanted to belong to something bigger and stronger than I am
And that was you for a little while but I can't just sit here and smile
Cause there's more behind those eyes and I'm just waiting to find

What it is that makes this world go around
What it is that makes my heart pound so loud
Like you knocking at my door, harder and faster than
You've ever done before
So what's the rush? This desperation is getting too much
Just reach out and touch my heart tonight

And if you've got something to say
Boy, would you just say it now?
Cause I don't wanna wait, I don't wanna waste my time
Waiting for the right song to play if you're just gonna walk away

And so this is a love song
The first and very last one that I'll ever write for you
The last thing that I'll give into
Cause you've known all along
I've always wanted to belong to something bigger and stronger than I am

So now I'll just wait for the strength to go forever
To sing to you whenever you're down
For someone special to come along and feel the same
Without the perfect words to say but more the perfect way
To make it all ok

And if you've got something to say
Boy, would you just say it now?
Cause I don't wanna wait, I don't wanna waste my time
Waiting for the right song to play if you're just gonna walk away

I've been losing sleep, I cannot speak
And you don't know the half of it
If you could just see for me, if you could just breathe for me
Then maybe you'd know how it is to feel when everything is just so far from real
If you could just wear my shoes, if you could just stay in my room
Then maybe you'd know how it is to go through the same thing everyday

And so this is a love song
The first and very last one
