LAST WORDS

Written on 9/11/01 by Sal Pisciotta
upon hearing the news report
of a cell phone call from a spouse
trapped in the Twin Towers
left on their home answering machine.
[Name of Band: Second Wind]

~~~

I want you to know that it’s alright
Hug the kiddies and kiss them goodnight
and oh Babe, I love you

We’re coming down oh so fast
all I can think of is our past
and Baby, I love you.

There really is no reason
and all I know
is I love you.

Go on believing
the world needs love
it’s all we can do

O Babe I love you
it’s my last words
I’ll say to you
I’ll say to you

O Babe I love you
it’s my last words
I’ll say to you
I’ll say to you

When you think of me tonight
and all the things we’ve gone through in life
Then remember how
I loved you.

It’s OK about our past
good & bad, the love will last
and O Babe, I love you

There really is no reason
and all I know is I love you

Go on living
Real down deep
you know what to do

O Babe I love you
it’s my last words
I’ll say to you
I’ll say to you

O Babe I love you
it’s my last words
I’ll say to you

Hold the kiddies close tonight
Everything’s gonna be alright
Remember, I love you

When you tuck them in tonight
let them know that I’m alright
and Remember, I Love you

I Love you I love you

I Love you I love you

I Love you I love you
