This Is It

There's no way back, it's the end of the road

And now we both, know, it is too late so just let it go

We've memories, of what we used to be
And now it's so plain to see there's no more you, no more me

[Chorus:]

This is it, guess this means goodbye

This is it, please don't you cry

This is it, we missed the last chance so this is the last glance, now we're through

So baby, you, just, turn round and walk away don't look back

Tears in my eyes, but I wear a clowns disguise

I know it might be, wise to prepare for some lonely nights

This is it, guess this means goodbye

This is it, please don't you cry

This is it, we missed the last chance so this is the last glance, now we're through

So baby, you, just, turn round and walk away don't look back

I know there'll be, time to reflect

On the way that it all used to be

[Chorus:]

This is it, guess this means goodbye

This is it, please don't you cry

This is it, we missed the last chance so this is the last glance, now we're through

So baby, you, just, turn around walk away don't look back

This is it (this is it), guess this means goodbye (guess this means goodbye)

This is it (this is it), please don't you cry (don't you cry)

This is it, we missed the last chance so this is the last glance, now we're through

So baby, you, just, turn around walk away don't look back





So baby, you, just, turn around walk away don't look back
