The Last Word Lyrics - David Arn

It's good to see you back again 

I don't deserve to know where you have been 

I tried to cure resentment with a bitter pill 

Unkindness was confusing, I'm reading handouts still 

We both lament when our bed disappeared that night 

Like a faltering prize fighter my brain was one horrific sight 

I implored the referee to halt my bout 

"Let me excuse myself, don't drag it out" 

But now I'm willing to say 

Every lock opens with a key 

It's your call what the morning brings 

You are the free bird 

You get the last word 

Come in and rest your wings 

We smelled a rose and had to have them all 

Held them much too tightly, watched the petals fall 

Lost sight of the magic charm when they adorn 

Dreams were left with much less rose than thorn
