My Last Request
It sounded best when you were around
But now it's so different it just makes me feel blue
My last request will remind me of you
I lose myself in sweet mem'ries of us
But I'll find my way again I know that I must
I give my heart you're not impressed
Now you don't hear this my last request
[ guitar ]
We danced along and you wanted to hear
That this would never end I felt your happy tear
There's no way out I must accept
But play this one slow pick up what's left
When our love was dying and I tried my best
You would not listen to my last request
Now I still hear my last request
