I could have treated you better
but you could'nt have treated me worse
but it's he who laughs last
is he who cries first

Sometimes I feel I know strangers
better than I know my friends
why must a beginning
be the means to an end

sol do
The stones from my enemies
sol do
these wounds will mend
mim ré
but I cannot survive
do sol
the roses from my friends

 
When the last word has been spoken
and we've beared witness to the final setting sun
all that shall remain is a token
of what we've said and done

When all we've had has been forsaken
distant church bells no longer ring
that's the sound of a heart taken
and the story of tears from a king

refrain
 
This may be the last time I see you
forgive me for holding you close
this may be the last time I see you
so of this moment I will make the most

This may be the last time I see you
but if you keep me in your heart
together we shall be eternal
if you believe
we shall never part

refrain
