Alex Kahn - Our Last Day

That morning you woke me up
You started slamming the door
You told me to rise and shine son
Was still stoned from the night before

Rolling down West River Drive
I played a Jens song I loved
It didn't impress you much
But I caught you humming along

We didn't talk about much
Football and bagels and stuff
I didn't know this was the last time
I'd hear your voice
Or see your face
This way

On our last day
On our last day
On our last day
Together

We got to the party late
I met cousins that I'd never seen
Old ladies wearing sunglasses
Playing cards and eating ice cream

I made you a plate of food
That you were in no state to eat
Then you said "son let's leave"
And I had just rolled a nun

We didn't talk about much
Religion and cancer and stuff
I didn't know this was the last time
I'd hear your voice
Or see your face

Waving goodbye I worried
That you'd make it home ok
But I worried in vain
It wasn't the car that would take you away

From me
And from the family
That you loved
And adored
No that would be
Too easy

We didn't talk about much
Living and dying and stuff
I didn't know this was the last time
I'd hear your voice
Or see your face
This way

On our last day
On our last day
On our last day
Together
