[Verse 1]
I started the story without the connection
Narrated my path with the lack of direction
But circumstance make that path collide with yours
Your life saved mine through sliding doors
You see? It's confession time
It's sweet and good for me like five portions of Clementine
They thought you would change but your inner strength shined
They thought would break but you never did, cry
And through the violence and trying times I try to
Describe that even though you're quite new
That I like you
Fights? True. We had our share
But in those circumstances, man that is fair
But you were so smart and we were so synced
And you were such a big part of this whole thing
And I care about the others but I know you know it within you
You were special, and so it continues
[Hook x2]
This can't be the credits
You were the limelight
You were the limelight, girl
And I'll never find another
And I'm never going to recover
[Verse 2]
It hurts... God damnit, it hurts so much
Like a car crash, man I think i burnt the clutch
Lost in the far past that consumed you
I stayed lucky for as long as I knew you
Now I look at my memories
Replay them again and again and again
And I can play and pretend
Turn my back to the world and tell it... (No Sir)
There's no way in hell I intend to let her go Sir
Okay, I have to trust
Cause I really don't want this to be the last of us
No, it's too soon (Way too soon)
You were more of a cure than you knew
God damnit I loved you!
You elevated me, eli- elevated to the next level
And I hope you know you were dead special though
Cause I know you knew within you
But the games never end
And so it continues
[Hook x2]
This can't be the credits
You were the limelight
You were the limelight, girl
And I'll never find another
And I'm never going to recover
[Bridge]
You showed me your world
You let me escape
So never think for a second that I'm forgetting your face
Never think for a second that I'm forgetting your face
You showed me the world
You let me escape
So never think for a second that I'm forgetting your face
Never think for a second that somebody is taking your place!
[Hook x2]
This can't be the credits
You were the limelight
You were the limelight, girl
And I'll never find another
And I'm never going to recover
[Exit 1]
This can't be the credits
You showed me your world
And I'll never find another
And I'm never going to recover
[Exit 2]
This can't be the credits
You let me escape
And I'll never find another
And I'm never going to recover
