Batla:
Somewhere in the desert is a telegraph pole
Holding up a telephone line full of copper wires
With your voice and mine and a profound silence
Trying to build a word-bridge between our islands
I'd like to hold you but like I told you it's hard
To look beyond tomorrow with this wounded heart
Like a lion tamer who got mauled by his favourite
This memory's still painful, time won't erase it
And you've been through the same ***, ain't this,
Strange how, life shifts,
When you least expect it, Cupid beckons
And love can live or die in a second
So I'll say it now or forever wonder if, if,
Would our grip have slipped or was this the real ***?
I pour some more change into the payphone
If you got something that you gotta say please say so
The last chance, this'll be the last time
This'll ever feel like this so don't miss
He last chance, this'll be the last time
This'll ever feel like this so don't miss
Urthboy:
I met her when I wasn't in a good state
Sore sight couldn't sleep right toss and turning all night
You see I've never been a ladies man so wasn't like
I whispered softly in her ear yo baby let me take your hand
I try to play it cool though inside I'm inanimate
Frozen up impossible to speak like a real candidate
Yeah I'm an MC they all call me wordsmith
But somehow the context changed and all the words miss
But whose to say you're not my life's purpose, It's Urth
At your service, for once there's no question I'm certain
But little does it translate, until the dam breaks
I've got no rabbit in my hat yeah I'm not Mandrake
I haven't got a trick, and no pick-up line
Give me a sign and I'll repay it in kind
Multiply it a by a dozen and we can call it a day
And if you were inside my arms then this is what I'd say
The last chance, this will be the last time
This will ever feel like this so don't miss
The last chance, this will be the last time
This will ever feel like this so don't miss
Urthboy:
I would've told you I was inspired, in awe
Enthralled captivated by the way you bring
Your self to the task, food for the starved, love
For the heart, talking deeply, still sharing laughs
And if I'm half what you are well I'm content
When I have a couple kids I hope to pass on your sense
And damn, I've seen the way that life can slip through the fingers
Death might interrupt but the love will still linger
Batla:
My friend said that losing love is like a death
But then love lingers long after the final breath
And these sentiments I'm thinking of in retrospect
Got me really wishing that you hadn't left us yet
And if I'd known of what you were gonna do what could I say?
A magic phrase or two which would've made you stay?
In the storm cloud of your life you were the silver lining
And in each one of our hearts your star is still shining
Resolve it all before you sleep man
This could be your last chance
It's water underneath the bridge man
This could be your last chance
Because no one lives forever man
This could be your last chance
It's either do it or regret it and
The last chance, this'll be the last time
This'll ever feel like this so don't miss
