Last Communion
Teddy Swims
Ooh, ooh
I used to believe Heaven was bulletproof
Only God could turn the red light blue (only God can turn the red light blue)
Been cuttin' me deep, dyin' to talk to you
Only love can push the blade right through
This love's an orphan callin' on deaf ears
And there's no afterlife, but if there is
It's late in the nighttime, so it's the right time
For sleep talkin', sleep talkin'
And now the heart shot dead
Buried under each and every word unsaid
Twenty-four hours since: Goodbye, God bless
'Fore we let the ghost get away
One last communion, babe
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah)
So I let it go, with nobody else around
Couldn't watch forever fall face down
So I turned my head the second it hit the ground
And I felt it but it made no sound
This love's an orphan callin' on deaf ears
And there's no afterlife, but if there is
It's late in the night time, so it's the right time
For sleep talkin', sleep talkin'
You was a grand old age
Oh and yes, I know that nothin' gold can stay
But I couldn't bring myself to turn that page
Before I drop a kiss on the grave
One last communion, baby
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah)
One last communion, baby
One last, one last, one last
One last communion, baby
One last communion, baby
Oh-ooh, ooh-oh
It was a childish game
Who could light a candle in the crying rain
No one can know about the mess we made
I'm scrubbing, praying that the blood don't stain
I only whisper your name
One last communion, baby
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah)
One last communion, baby (oh, yeah, oh, yeah, babe)
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
One last, one last
