| Well I’ve known this girl forever
|
| From the playground to the dance hall
|
| From the same old dirty housing
|
| All her friends I will call my friends
|
| All the time we call our own
|
| Well we used to stand together
|
| Now I stand alone
|
| This is it, how was I the last to know
|
| This is it, how was I the last to know
|
| This is it, it’s touch and go
|
| Well I should’ve seen it coming
|
| Well I should’ve read the signs
|
| She was gone in the morning
|
| Left me with red eyes at night
|
| Well she couldn’t even tell me
|
| Didn’t tell me
|
| Cause my courage must’ve failed her
|
| Turning out the light
|
| This is it, how was I the last to know
|
| This is it, how was I the last to know
|
| This is it, it’s touch and go
|
| What if I should find you
|
| Drag you to your room
|
| That’s the trouble you’ve been go too soon
|
| Well I hope you make it big time
|
| Well I hope you got it right
|
| That you say you got no heart to put up a fight
|
| Maybe I’m new to this small town
|
| But I still got more than you
|
| Why don’t you just try and call me
|
| When you’re passing through
|
| This is it, how was I the last to know
|
| This is it, how was I the last to know
|
| This is it, it’s touch and go
|
| What if I should find you
|
| Take you to a movie
|
| That’s the trouble you been go too soon
|
| This is it, how was I the last to know
|
| This is it, how was I the last to know
|
| This is it, it’s touch and go
|
| This is it, how was I the last to know
|
| This is it, how was I the last to know
|
| This is it, it’s touch and go |
