Jars of Clay

Famous Last Words

1. 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

R: (Famous last words)

Famous last words,

"I'm not ready yet"

"I won't be gone a minute"

2. 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

R: (Famous last words)

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 said you were only waiting

R: (Famous last words)

And famous last words,

"I'm not ready yet"

"I won't be gone a minute" but I won't forget

Famous last words

If tomorrow never comes, will I ever know that I was in love?

that I was in love
