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
