## Lyrics

**[Intro]**

Ah, ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

Ah, ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

**[Verse 1]**

All the late night conversations

Way too many hesitations

Feel the doubt, I feel the doubt

And the memories, I've been savin'

But the good ones, they're all fadin'

Fadin' out, they're fadin' out

And I hear you callin' out my name

Oh, we can't go back and that's a shame

**[Pre-Chorus]**

Wish I could tell you there's no one to blame

Wish I could tell you I still feel the same

I want you to know, know, that it was never in vain

And that's the last thing that you'll hear, you'll hear me say

**[Chorus]**

Last thing that you'll, last thing that you'll hear

Last thing that you'll, you, last thing that you'll hear

Last thing that you'll, last thing that you'll hear

Last thing that you'll, you, last thing that you'll hear

**[Post-Chorus]**

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Last thing that you'll hear

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Wish I could tell you

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Last thing that you'll hear

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

It'll be the last thing, last thing

**[Verse 2]**

All the ways I tried to reach you

Told myself that I still need you

How I used to, the way I used to

And I know just what you're sayin'

But the words don't mean the same thing anymore

Oh, anymore

I hear you callin' out my name

Oh, we can't go back and that's a shame

**[Pre-Chorus]**

Wish I could tell you there's no one to blame

Wish I could tell you I still feel the same

I want you to know, know, that it was never in vain

And that's the last thing that you'll hear, you'll hear me say

**[Chorus]**

Last thing that you'll, last thing that you'll hear

Last thing that you'll, you, last thing that you'll hear

Last thing that you'll, last thing that you'll hear

Last thing that you'll, you, last thing that you'll hear

**[Post-Chorus]**

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Last thing that you'll hear

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Wish I could tell you

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Last thing that you'll hear

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

That's the last thing, last thing

**[Bridge]**

But I wish I could tell you there's no one to blame

Wish I could tell you I still feel the same

I want you to know, know, that it was never in vain

And that's the last thing that you'll hear

Oh, it's the last thing that you'll hear

**[Outro]**

You'll hear me say, you'll hear me say

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Last thing that you'll hear

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

You'll hear me say
