The singer has made some grave mistake or let his partner down, and he is trying to convince them to stay with him.
[Verse 1]
Please don't let this turn into somethin' it's not
I can only give you everything I've got
I can't be as sorry as you think I should
But I still love you more than anyone else could
[Verse 2]
All that I keep thinkin' throughout this whole flight
Is it could take my whole damn life to make this right
This splintered mast I'm holdin' on won't save me long
Because I know fine well that what I did was wrong
[Chorus]
The last girl and the last reason
To make this last for as long as I could
First kiss and the first time
That I felt connected to anything
The weight of water, the way you taught me
To look past everything I had ever learned
The final word in the final sentence
You ever uttered to me was "love"
[Verse 3]
We have got through so much worse than this before
What's so different this time that you can't ignore?
You say it is much more than just my last mistake
And we should spend some time apart for both our sakes
[Chorus]
The last girl and the last reason
To make this last for as long as I could
First kiss and the first time
That I felt connected to anything
The weight of water, the way you taught me
To look past everything I had ever learned
The final word in the final sentence
You ever uttered to me was "love"
The last girl and the last reason
To make this last for as long as I could
First kiss and the first time
That I felt connected to anything
The weight of water, the way you taught me
To look past everything I had ever learned
The final word in the final sentence
You ever uttered to me was "love"
[Outro]
And I don't know where to look
My words just break and melt
Please just save me from this darkness
Please just save me from this darkness
And I don't know where to look
My words just break and melt
Please just save me from this darkness
Please just save me from this darkness

According to Gary Lightbody in 2013:
‘Make This Go On Forever’ was never a single. It’s a lie to call it a greatest hit, I guess. But it’s a hit live, for sure. When you come to the gig, people are genuinely moved by it. And you can see people that have heard it before, the way they get into it and...
The PinkPop (2009) and BBC’s Radio 1’s Big Weekend in Dundee performances.
