Last Time We Ever Spoke

[Verse 1]
All I learned from this mistake
Is that there's far too much at stake
To blow it all on some forgotten dream
If I'm the only one who ever saw
That in the end your heart was pure
Then, darling, your secret's safe with me

[Chorus]
But now I try to breathe without you and I choke
And all my memories of you fade with the smoke
And I will cry and cry
Until the breath in me runs dry
But that was the last time we ever spoke

[Verse 2]
If all I ever meant to you
Was just some silly thing to do
Then why can't I believe you when you say
It was just a way of killing time
Well deep inside you know that I'm
The greatest thing you ever threw away

[Chorus]
But now I try to breathe without you and I choke
She laughed and said we were just a joke
And my heart cracked beneath the act
But that doesn't change the fact
That that was the last time we ever spoke

[Verse 3]
And as the days go by I can pretend
This broken heart is on the mend
And I'll wait for the time that I can say
That it's okay and I'll be fine
Forbidden fruit makes sour wine
And I guess I learned it all the hardest way

[Chorus]
For now I'll try to breathe without you and I'll choke
Pick up the pieces of the crystal dreams you broke
And I can't let myself forget
Got my whole life to regret
That that was the last time we ever spoke

[Verse 4]
If all you learned from this mistake
Is bigger hearts take time to break
I pray for the day you finally see
That I'm the only one who ever knew
That in the end your heart was true
But darling, your secret dies with me

[Chorus]
One day I'll try to breathe without you and not choke
And I hope your memories don't twist and die like smoke
And oh, I tried and tried
Till the romantic in me died
But that was the last time we ever spoke
Yeah that was the last time we ever spoke
Yeah that was the last time we ever spoke
