[Verse 1: Emmylou Harris]
My famous last words
Are laying around in tatters
Sounding absurd
Whatever I try
But I love you
And that's all that really matters
If this is goodbye
If this is goodbye

[Verse 2: Mark Knopfler]
Your bright shining sun
Would light up the way before me
You were the one
Who made me feel I could fly
And I love you
Whatever is waiting for me
If this is goodbye
If this is goodbye

[Bridge: Mark Knopfler & Emmylou Harris]
Who knows how long we've got
Or what we're made out of
Who knows if there's a plan or not
There is our love
I know there is our love
[Verse 3: Mark Knopfler & Emmylou Harris, Emmylou Harris]
My famous last words
Could never tell the story
Spinning unheard
In the dark of the sky
But I love you
And this our glory
If this is goodbye
If this is goodbye
If this is goodbye
If this is goodbye
