I’ve Got The Feeling This Is The Last Time


I got the feeling this is the last time
The very last time
I’ve got the feeling this is the last time
My eyes will fall on your face
We will be in the same place
I will ever feel your embrace

I got the feeling this is the last day
The very last day
I’ve got the feeling this is the last day
I will be saying your name
I will have to play this game
I will only have you to blame

My reflection in the mirror is all hazy
My features are dour and shopworn
I can feel myself slowly going crazy
And the mask of the sane I’ll adorn.

Tonight is the night of the showdown
The moment where I make my stand
Where I decide to follow the sundown
Or make the climb to the highland….

I got the feeling this is the last one
The very last one
I’ve got the feeling this is the last one
Of the bridges I’m able to burn
Of the lessons I’ll need to learn
Before I discover that corner to turn.
