The sinking feeling
That follows the elation
Which leaves you reeling
You count the cost of hesitation
We should be dwelling
On the present
Not thinking about the future
This is reverse happiness
Because we know it can't go on
Is this the last chance for us?
The last moment then you're gone
That sinking feeling
Allows us both to carry on
No point in concealing
The truth about our situation
We should be living
Our time is borrowed
It's time to let our love show
This is reverse happiness
Because we know it can't go on
Is this the last chance for us?
The last moment then you're gone
This is reverse happiness
Because of the fragile state we're in
Is this the past catching up?
The moment we have been outrun
That follows the elation
