Blue Rodeo Last To Know Lyrics

Last To Know Lyrics

What took so long to build



took a moment to slip away



you could barely hide



the satisfaction on your face



Time takes another day



changes you in subtle ways



lifts you up then slowly lets you go



Sitting there across the room



your smile looks like a threat



I'm living underneath the heel



of what you might say next



Memory works in strange ways



cuts you down makes you pay



one day you'll be walking fine



the next day lightning hits you from behind



One heart one love



two people who can't rise above



each time we fall



don't know what I was thinking of



don't say it's so 



don't say it's so



let me be the last to know



Seems we move backward now



the further on we walk



hard to find a single line



through all our double talk



Home late and drunk again



close the door shut out the rain



one more day no damage done



but my spirits are falling sinking



like the sun



One heart one love



two people who can't rise above



each time we fall



don't know what I was thinking of



don't say it's so 



don't say it's so



let me be the last to know



I'm standing at your doorway



I can hear your voice inside



you're telling all your friends



what you're gonna say to me tonight



write me a better part



find the words to break your heart



keep you on your knees forever



funny how my tongue gets tied together



One heart one love



two people who can't rise above



each time we fall



don't know what I could be dreaming of



don't say it's so 



don't say it's so



let me be the last to know
