Isobel Knight
Last Times
[Verse 1]
White hair on a white pillow
Soft shirt against your warm neck
I'm trying to read the cues
There's never a good time to go
When there's a clock ticking down the minutes you have left

[Chorus]
And I'll happily answer your questions fifty times over
And I reckon when that door swings shut
I'll look over my shoulder
And I know that you prayed that I'll give what I can give
But how do you grieve a life so well lived?
Is there a room in my prayer of thanks
To selfishly just want you back?
Your last time was the strangest thing I've seen

[Verse 2]
Soft song in the sweet dawn light
Your daughter sang you out of this life
How long had you been dreaming of over there?

[Chorus]
And I'll be asking these questions fifty times over
And you can bet when that door swung shut
I looked over my shoulder
And I know that you prayed that i'd give what I can give
But how can you grieve a life so well lived
Is there a room in my prayer of thanks
To selfishly just want to back
Your last time was the sweetest thing I've seen
Oh your last time was the sweetest thing I've seen
