Lyrics
[Intro] One more before I go don’t make it harder [Verse 1] Maybe this is the last one for a while Funny how I’m leaving with a smile *(with a smile)* All those nights I stayed awake Trying to turn a feeling into shape Some were good some fell apart Somehow every one still left a mark Now the room is quiet and I know— I think it’s time for me to go [Pre-Chorus] Don’t ask me if I’m sure I’ve been standing by this door for too long [Chorus] So play it one more time before I go *(one more time)* Let it run until the lights get low If you ever hear my voice somewhere maybe you’ll remember I was there *(I was there)* One more time before I leave keep whatever you still need I don’t know where I’m going yet but I’m ready for whatever’s next [Post-Chorus] Before I go— one more one more before I— go [Verse 2] I used to think I had to stay Just because I gave so much away Kept on trying to make it fit Even when I stopped believing in it No bad ending no big scene Just a little space between who I was and who I’m trying to be Maybe leaving is what I need (maybe it is) [Pre-Chorus] Don’t ask me to turn around I can love it and still put it down that’s enough— (that’s enough) [Chorus] So play it one more time before I go Let it run until the lights get low If you ever hear my voice somewhere maybe you’ll remember I was there One more time before I leave keep whatever you still need I don’t know where I’m going yet but I’m ready for whatever’s next [Bridge] Maybe I’ll come back maybe I won’t I don’t need to know right now *(not right now)* And if this really is goodbye I’m glad I gave it all that time No regrets— just one last thing I had to write [Final Chorus] So play it one more time [Final Chorus] So play it one more time before I go *(one more time)* Let it run until the lights get low If you ever hear my voice somewhere maybe you’ll remember I was there One more time before I leave keep the parts that meant something I don’t know where I’m going yet but for once I’m good with that (I’m good with that) [Outro] Maybe this is the last one for a while Funny how I’m leaving with a smile before I go
