For the Last Time

God knows I've known some lovers In my storied past But those and all the others They just didn't last And now I know why For the first time I'm in love For the last time My love was like a lyric With no melody And words are only words If there's no poetry Now I've found my rhyme For the first time I'm in love For the last time So many bridges burned Without a lesson learned I thought that I had earned This life alone But through God's saving grace And the beauty of your face My heart has found a place To call my own I never thought forever'd Ever be for me I could only guess that happiness wasn't meant to be But now both are mine For the first time I'm in love For the last time So many bridges burned Without a lesson learned I thought that I had earned This life alone But through God's saving grace And the beauty of your face My heart has found a place To call my own I never thought forever'd Ever be for me I could only guess that happiness wasn't meant to be But now both are mine For the first time I'm in love For the last time For the first time I'm in love for the last time
