Lyrics

[Verse 1]

My famous last words are laying around in tatters

Soundin' absurd, whatever I try

But I love and that's all that really matters

If this is goodbye, if this is goodbye

[Verse 2]

Your bright shinin' sun would light up the way

Before me, you were the one, made me feel

I could fly, and I love you, whatever is waiting for me

If this is goodbye, if this is goodbye

[Verse 3]

Who knows how long we've got

Or what we're made out of

Who knows if there's a plan or not

There is our love, I know there is our love

[Verse 4]

My famous last words could never tell the story

Spinning unheard in the dark of the sky

But I love you and this is our glory

If this is goodbye, if this is goodbye

If this is goodbye, if this is goodbye
