Swan Song from Sunrise by Daniels on the Rocks

Straight through, cut in like a knife
just take a look at the feelings that are right
there for all to see and hear
you can keep them my dear

And I swear I never lied in the moonlight
well I can't say the same for you now can I
but that's okay my dear
you always told the truth when others were near

And I swear to you it's fleeting
and the next time that we're meeting
I promise you will not have to hear about this

These glances across a table
three wishes that were never granted
a swan song bemoaning the two of us
and I'll never repeat those words

You knew the truth and wished I didn't say it
but of course I can never keep a secret
it's not unlike you to be surprised at my predictability

The sun rose and with it did your anger
said it's my fault but you've always been a blamer
but it doesn't matter because the end's here either way

and I swear to you it's fleeting
and the next time that we're meeting
I promise you will not have to put up with all of this

These glances across a table
three wishes that were never granted
a swan song bemoaning the two of us
and I'll never again repeat those words

Now you're gone and so am I
it's a shame I had to leave my soul behind
but maybe someone will find it
and make better use of it than I did

Fleeting it may be
but it never felt more real
feelings they dissolve
but the memories never will

I swear to you it's fleeting
and the next time that we're meeting
I promise you will not have to hear about all of this
These glances across a table
three wishes that were never granted
a swan song bemoaning the two of us
and I'll never again repeat those words

I'll never apologize for my wrongs
so why should I do it for my rights
My last rights
