about

“The Last Song I Sing” is an expression of love. This can be interpreted as love for God, or love for another person, but the message is the same - sometimes we don’t audibly speak our love often enough. In any relationship, with people or with God, it is easy to get caught up talking about/focusing on yourself and your issues. This song urges listeners to think about what is really important in such relationships, and what you would say if you knew it would be the last phrase you would ever speak to that person. “If this is the last song that I sing, I want it to say ‘I love you’”.

lyrics

I’ve been thinking lately how time keeps moving on
can't believe the summer's come and gone
I’d hate to think I’ve wasted chances to convey
what we both know but I don’t always say
and I just need to know you're listening

if this is the last song that I sing
let it be honest
let it be true
if this is the last song that I sing
I want it to say I love you
I love you

seems our time together is easily consumed
listening to everything that I’ve been going through
I’m so tired of the thief that I've become
I’m ready now to change my ways
sorry that it took so long
in everything I know you’re listening
