If this was your last month,
or this was your last week,
you'd be so careful,
with each precious day. If this was your last hour,
or this was your last moment,
you'd be so careful,
to live the right way. And if this was the last song,
that you ever heard,
you'd want to hear it,
all the way through. And if this was the last song,
that I ever sung,
I'd want to be,
about you. If you were a soldier,
and this was your last fight,
would you be careful,
or would you be brave. If you were a begger,
and this was your last night,
the money you'd spent,
would be all that you'd take. And if this was the last song,
that you ever heard,
you'd want to hear it,
all the way through. And if this was the last song,
that I ever sung,
I'd want to be,
about you. Somebody is standing outside,
in the pouring rain,
somebody is standing outside,
can you ease the pain? Somebody is standing outside,
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
somebody is standing outside,
won't you just, won't you just,
open your heart and let him in?
