Last day
Did you know it
Like a secret goodbye
Plans made
Orchestrated
Or just the mark of your life?

Last hours
Could you feel them
Like a weight on your limbs
As you pounded to the finish
Or was that just how you lived?

If this is the last night ever
I don’t want to say I never
Loved so hard that I fell
Or lived true to myself
Don’t want to say I never took the leap
Or said the words
If this is the last night ever on earth

Last minutes of sunlight
You could’ve sat and soaked it in
But you turned up your own fire
And we are still feeling it

You light the way
Light years away
Through time and space
You are still beaming
