The Last of Me
Liner Notes
Lyrics
Although you want me to leave Something is there up my sleeve I have a knack For coming back Something you’d better believe I know you can’t abide me I want you here beside me I’m no has been you have not seen The last of me
Please believe me I’m sincere I want to make myself clear No bridges burn I will return You ain’t got nothing to fear No regrets well not so many I’m just like that old bad penny Do not be mean You have not seen the last of me
I’m not trying to pressure you wish you’d change your mind Please give me just one more chance You know I’ll be kind
Maybe you think I’m a bore I guess it’s happened before I have been weird you have been steered Show me the way out the door I won’t go out with a bang I’m like a new boomerang I’m evergreen You have not seen the last of me
This has a great Tin Pan Alley feel. Wrapping each verse up with "you have not seen the last of me" makes for a solid hook. The lyric makes me want it to have a fake ending, maybe a retard into a dramatic pause, then right back into the end of one of the verses as a refrain. Charming write!
