The Last To Know Lyrics - Dan Fogelberg

Living in a house of cards 

Praying the wind doesn't blow too hard 

Giving in to differences 

Straining to keep up appearances 

Making believe the thread can be saved 

You're aching to leave but deathly afraid of letting go 

The threads entangled you so 

Jealousies and legal fees 

Running away like two refugees 

Shadowed eyes and alibis 

Tell you too late you've been victimized 

Freedom is near but seems to elude you 

Trying to change your dreams into what your needs allow 

It should be easy by now 

Why is love always the last to know 

Falling back on better days 

Trying your damndest to laugh 

You've thrown those childish dreams away 

It's over, you say, still you ask 

Why is love always the last to know 

Falling back on better days 

Trying your damndest to laugh 

You've thrown those childish dreams away 

It's over, you say, still you ask 

Why is love always the last to know 

Why is love always the last to know
