She walks the wire
Start to ending
But the wheeze is someone else inside her head
She swallowed fire
While pretending
That the flame has long been dead
And now love is just a stranger in her bed
She said this is the last time
I won't be back
I'll take a cab home
Before the second act
This is the last time
I'll turn that page
No more tomorrows
I'm full of empty yesterdays
Now cousin Sydney's such an outcast
Cause his parents?
An angry young man is on the warpath
There's so many things he'd change
If only he'd been better bet-all tell-all Hank
He said this is the last time
I won't be back
I'll take a cab home early
Before the second act
This is the last time
I'll change my ways
No more tomorrows
And the things I'd wished I'd always changed
In a shiny perfect world
Dashing boy gets girl
Are you one of the lonely ones
Seems I can't remember when
Or just how long it's been
Since I've been waiting for that train that never comes
And we said this is the last time
I won't be back
I'll take a cab home early
Before the second act
This is the last time
I'll turn that page
I left the opening rather early
Before they left the stage
This is the last time
I change my ways
No more tomorrows
I'm full of empty yesterdays
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
