lyrics

If you have to decide then I've already won,
You can't fight a feeling and you can't lose a thought,
Gooodbyes have been said but nobody forgets,
You're a name on my lips, you're alive in my head.

If all is lost won't you tell me so?
I don't want to be the last to know,
One hand in another, one around a fencepost,
The ground's giving in,
Please don't let me go.

Don't think, don't choose, don't stand in my shoes,
Do what comes by nature do what comes to you,
I'm not going to beg you, I'm not going to try,
You don't need a reason so don't tell me why.

If all is lost won't you tell me so?
I don't want to be the last to know,
One hand in another, one around a fencepost,
The ground's giving in,
Please don't let me go.

A string of bad choices, a trail of regrets,
Two counts on the wrap-sheet, six months on the bench,
No matter the distance we'll always be close,
Oh my partner in crime, I love you the most.

If all is lost won't you tell me so?
I don't want to be the last to know,
One hand in another, one around a fencepost,
The ground's giving in,
Please don't let me go.
