The New Pornographers - Last And Beautiful Lyrics

The New Pornographers Lyrics

"Last And Beautiful"

I was going to seek the dark ends of the earth
A last beautiful stand
Was going to step down, drop torches
Become just a face in the crowd

It was done, I dotted all the Is but one
Deal was done, I dotted all the Is but one

And I don't wanna go by myself, come with me
I don't wanna go by myself
I don't wanna go by myself, come with me
I don't wanna go by myself

The game was to go around the bend and
Report back what I found
Go into one ear and out the other one
The good old smash and grab

It was done, I dotted all the Is but one
Deal was done, I dotted all the Is but one

And I don't wanna go by myself, come with me
I don't wanna go by myself
I don't wanna go by myself, come with me
I don't wanna go by myself

I was going to reap exactly what I'd sown
A last beautiful stand
My crowning mistake in the arc of my dive
The last second look down

It was done, I dotted all the Is but one
Deal was done, I dotted all the Is but one

And I don't wanna go by myself, come with me
I don't wanna go by myself
I don't wanna go by myself, come with me
I don't wanna go by myself
