LOVE FOR THE LAST TIME
By Carole King
Seems funny now to think of how I call you up
to talk about all the little things
that were in my mind
You were a friend,
You listened to all I dreamed of
I wanted a real love,
The good old fashioned kind.
It was you all along
You who kept me strong.
I wonder how I could've been so blind
You kissed me like a lover,
Loved me like a friend
And I'm in love for the last time.
I got burned,seems like everybody does,by romance
Still I yearn and though I didn't know just what it was,
I got a second chance.
Just think of it,
If we had missed the moment,
We might have spent the years ahead
Believing love had passed
I found a love to last a lifetime
I'm in love for the last time,
And time will make it last.
It was you all along,
You who kept me strong
I don't know how I could've been so blind.
You kissed me like a lover,
Loved me like a friend
And I'm in love for the last time
It was you all along
You who kept me strong...
