lyrics

Why do you say you do when I know you don’t?
Don’t say you will when we both know that you won’t
Why do you say you’ll stay when you wanna go?
Oh and why, why was I the last to know?

You were looking for a reason to walk out the door?
Drifting on a river of tears I’ve been here before
Put on a smile and you put on a show
Oh if everybody knew honey, why was I the last to know?

And if you wanna feel free take all the time you need
And if you wanna touch the sky well that’s fine by me
And if the choices that you’re making leave you empty and feeling low
It’ll be news to me, I’ll be the last to know

Nobody tells you anything you don’t wanna hear
You put your poker face on and you wore it all those years
You can’t fix something if you don’t admit it’s broke
Oh so why, why was I the last to know?

And if we sang that song like it used to be
Would you come alive fall back in love with me?
And if your heart of stone could learn to bleed
Would we ride that road, would you stick with me?

And if you wanna feel free take all the time you need
And if you wanna touch the sky well that’s fine by me
And if the choices that you’re making leave you empty and feeling low
It’ll be news to me, I’ll be the last to know
I’ll be the last to know
