The candles whisper,
The shadows outline that youre right on time for the very first time...
You cant conceal that look,
The one I couldnt ignore,
Your look this evening was meant to deny...
The black and whites on the wall,
Our future there in doisneau,
My pocket is heavy with diamonds tonight...
But they wont shine on your hand,
And what I thought were our plans flicker out with goodbye...

Am I the last to know?

Your eyes are cold but my tears are warm,
Why do people like you hurt people like me?
You blind your fear with your pride,
Protect the woman inside,
I know you know how true it can be...
But youre afraid of the need,
Cant risk the imminent bleed,
What is love but the greatest of dangers...
And now the songs are a lie,
I never dreamed you would cry in a bed of a stranger...

Am I the last to know?

And in the shuddered rush, I will fall...
And in the tumbling I see it all...
A hushed release of you, and Im free, and alive, and my heart, is the
Last...

Am I the last to know?
