Last Words
[Verse 1]
I was there when you were born
Took you from your momma's arms
Stood in awe, a witness to
The first breath that you ever drew
I wish I could have held you when
You left this world like I did then
Last time we spoke was on the phone
And we hung up and now you're gone

[Chorus]
Last thing I said was, "I love you"
And your last words to me were, "I love you too"

[Verse 2]
I don't know why you hurt so bad
Just know you did, it makes me sad
Said everything I meant to say
Could not make it go away
Wherever you are traveling now
It doеsn't matter anyhow
Can't help but wonder if you knеw
You took a part of me with you

[Chorus]
Last thing I said was, "I love you"
And your last words to me were, "I love you too"
[Verse 3]
You made me laugh, you made me cry
Showed me truth, you told me lies
Tore my heart apart and then
You brought me back the piece again
Now I don't know what I'll do
Until the day I follow you
Through the darkness to the light
'Cause I loved you for all your life

[Chorus]
Last thing I said was, "I love you"
And your last words to me were, "I love you too"

[Outro]
I love you too
