FAMOUS LAST WORDS

you say you heard every word
but i watched you turn away
your eyes grew colder than winter
love is so intrusive
i thought i heard you say
and laugh so unconvincingly

famous last words
i'm not ready yet
i won't be gone a minute

narrow is the road and
too high a price to pay
when loneliness is such a sanctuary
empty are the musings
and wasted are the days
when you say you were only waiting

and famous last words
i'm not ready yet
i won't be gone a minute
and i won't forget
famous last words
if tomorrow never comes
will i ever know that i was in love

i was in love
in love

you say you heard every word
i watched you turn away
you were only waiting
