The Last One Died

11 were real and one was fake
There were 12 roses for me to take.
Signed with your name, made me tingle inside,
Because you said you would love me till the last one died.

Held out your hand and grabbed my heart,
Made a pinky promise to never be apart.
Said those three words and my heart skipped a beat,
Feels like I'm floating, so light on my feet.

Forever and always and a day and one more,
I don't have to wonder about love anymore.
Of course love lasts forever, how could it not?
There's no way I could lose you, you're all that I've got.

I'm holding you tighter, I won't let you go,
But you're starting to fear it, it's starting to show.
Please hold me closer, baby don't leave,
We're meant for each other, I really believe.

Why are you turning? You're walking away,
You know I'll do anything, Please baby, stay!
You promised me forever, What's going on?
I don't want to turn around and see that you're gone.

You left! I'm alone! I'm all by myself!
You just set me aside on the top dusty shelf.
I know you'll come back, you have to.. right?
I've been dreaming about you for 28 nights.

Oh good babe, you're here! I knew you'd come back!
Well you had to of course, I'm the Sally to your Jack!
Of course it's all the same, why would it change?
What are you saying? You're acting so strange.

What do you mean you can't say it? You said it before.
Did you just tell me you don't love me anymore?
But you're all of my heart, you're my world you see,
We can still make this work, I guarantee.

I'm so confused, why am I so sad?
You came back to me, I should be so glad!
But I come home every night and cry myself to sleep,
Because I'm feeling so worthless, I'm feeling so cheap.

I can't do it anymore, you know there's no use,
I won't do this to myself baby, No, I refuse.
First love's aren't forever, wow was I wrong!
It's already over, look babe, you're gone.

So I did fall in love, so you did break my heart,
It's not like you planned it all from the start.
I was living in a movie, I was living in a dream,
But I did get to feel love, or so it would seem.

Now I'll muster up my strength, and dry my own tears,
And just remember the fun we've had over the years.
I'll keep all the pictures, I have all the notes,
I've kept all the papers with silly love quotes.

But the roses are gone, I threw them away.
There was no longer a point to keep my bouquet.
And as much as it hurts, the truth is.. you lied.
Because you told me you'd love me till the last one died.
