I took the road less traveled and I don’t look back
Because I’m right on track and back on the machine
And I spent 10 long years in a wilderness
But it’s all coalesced and the conscience is clean
At every lonely crossroad you’ve been by my side
And I knew you’d be the one to set me free
There’s never been a doubt in this bright mind you’re right for me
So stay with what’s left of me and be the last face I see
I took a long hard look at what I’d become
What I was running from would catch me someday
And after all these years got this rule of thumb
Don’t let the heart grow numb it’s a high price to pay
(Chorus) (Solo) (Chorus)
This is my plea – stay here with me – be the last face I see
Down on one knee – stay here with me – be the last face I see
Yeah Its three O’clock in the afternoon
I’m contemplating a quarter moon and nowhere to spend it
Yeah I’m staring into a fifth of June
Because yesterday came to soon
I hope we never end it
Last face – last face – last face I see
