If the World was ending, you’d come over – right?

If the world was ending, I’d come over, right

Ready to spend the entire night

Never having to say good-bye,

Knowing you’d be the last face I’d see tonight.

 

Would you save me as your final list:

The person who says: ‘to hell with it?’

The one you who you always thought you’d celebrate?

The person who held it all together –

wasn’t easy saying ‘I’m jealous’, yeah,

Even though I haven’t been around for it.

 

Yet, I know, you know, we know

That you’ll be coming round tonight.

If all the world knows, it’s going to be

time to get out of sight…

 

If the world was ending, I’d come over, right

Ready to spend the entire night

Never having to say good-bye

Knowing you’d be the last face I’d see tonight.

  1. Terrific. I remember telling a person that their face was the last thing I wanted to see on this Earth. She was so impressed she left. 😁

  2. I think this is what makes this invisible serial killer masquerading as Covid-19 so hard, we are separated from our loved ones in many cases and can’t be with them.

  3. Beautiful. I would want to see the face of the one I love as my last sight, but most times death robs us of that final pleasure.
