[Verse 1: Thomas Powers]
Could you be someone I could cling to
In moments of despair?
When the world looks temporary
Built to be repaired (Built to be repaired)
[Pre-Chorus: Thomas Powers]
And we both like the idea of
A checkered kitchen floor (Checkered kitchen floor)
And dying by the ocean side
Maybe there's nothing more?
[Chorus: Thomas Powers & Alisa Xayalith]
There will be a last, there will be a last time
That we see each other
There will be a last, there will be a last time
You, you, you, you
Slow dance with me to every heartbeat (To every heartbeat)
There will be a last, there will be a last time
That we see each other
[Verse 2: Thomas Powers]
And I just can't, can't decide
Which is worse
The thought that you or I, might go first?
[Pre-Chorus: Thomas Powers]
And we both like the idea of
A checkered kitchen floor (Checkered kitchen floor)
And dying by the ocean side
Maybe there's nothing more?
[Chorus: Thomas Powers & Alisa Xayalith]
There will be a last, there will be a last time
That we see each other
There will be a last, there will be a last time
You, you, you, you
Slow dance with me to every heartbeat (To every heartbeat)
There will be a last, there will be a last time
That we see each other
[Bridge: Alisa Xayalith & Thomas Powers]
The party will still be going (The party will still be going)
But we have to leave (But we have to leave)
I think it's better knowing (I think it's better knowing)
Than having to believe (Than having to believe)
The party will still be going (The party will still be going)
But we have to leave (But we have to leave)
I think it's better knowing (I think it's better knowing)
Than having to believe (Than having to believe)
[Chorus: Thomas Powers & Alisa Xayalith]
There will be a last, there will be a last time
That we see each other
There will be a last, there will be a last time
You, you, you, you
Slow dance with me to every heartbeat (To every heartbeat)
There will be a last, there will be a last time
That we see each other
[Outro: Alisa Xayalith & Thomas Powers]
The party will still be going (The party will still be going)
But we have to leave (But we have to leave)
I think it's better knowing (I think it's better knowing)
Than having to believe (Than having to believe)
The party will still be going (The party will still be going)
But we have to leave (But we have to leave)
I think it's better knowing (I think it's better knowing)
Than having to believe (Than having to believe)

A May 2020 Shore Fire article quotes Thom Powers saying:
Mortality has always fascinated me, but it’s becoming more of a tangible concept as my family gets older. Age and experience have brought me some perspective on just how fragile life is. Nothing is permanent, and we take a lot for granted. No...
