As I lay here by my woman I know I'm where I belong again When I think of you beside me I just see his ring on your hand We used commonsense to work it out We quit before the word got out We hurt each other stead of hurtin' all the rest Why'd the last time have to be the best Why'd the last time have to be the time Time we made our poems rhyme You were perfect no more no less Lord why'd the last time have to be the best Today I passed our old meetin' place It's not hittin' like we used to think it was We were just blinded by passion running with the burning love We used commonsense to work it out... Why'd the last time have to be the time...
