Last December lyrics

His friends all come to the funeral underdressed

They stuck around for an hour or so and then they left

But I couldn’t take it personal, I laughed

I was dwelling on how time just goes so fast

And if I never do it better than the way I did before

I can live with that, it’s whatever

I wouldn’t trade it for the world

That’s just the life I guess

and it’s never what you expect

Everything’s okay and then we die

but it couldn’t be better

That’s just the life you get

and nobody gives a shit

Every time it hits me I still cry

but it couldn’t be better

In the end and after it all, there was nothing in general

You were my best friend, I was sad ‘cause I knew that you didn’t know

All the words we didn’t say, all the time that slipped away

I wanna live inside those moments every day

And if we never do it better, than the way we did before

I could live with that, it’s whatever

I wouldn’t trade us for the world

That’s just the life I guess

and it’s never what you expect

Everything’s okay and then we die

but it couldn’t be better

That’s just the life you get

and nobody gives a shit

Every time it hits me I still cry

but it couldn’t be better

Things we didn’t say

Mistakes that we both made

None of that stays with me to this day

The one thing I remember

Last year in December

You said “it’s just a dress rehearsal anyway”

If that’s just the life we get

and nobody gives a shit

Everything’s okay and then we die

That’s just the life I get

I guess I could live with it

I still can’t find the words to say goodbye
