Lyrics Jars Of Clay – Famous Last Words
Text:
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
