[Verse 1] If everything just stopped, And fools decide to press, The buttons that launch, The end of the world, As the minutes ran down, What would be your great regret? What would be the thing? That made you sad again? [Chorus] Then would be the time, For your lips to meet mine, To look you in the eye, And tell you how I feel, To feel the heat of you, And breathe it deep all in, To finally know at last, At the world's end. [Verse 2] I already know the answer, To that question on your lips, My fingers press the keys, To dial you straight away, And the tidal wave in me, Would rush across the land, And throw its arms around you, And hold you in its hands. [Chorus] [Harmonies] Then would be the time, And hold you in its hands. [Chorus] [Harmonies] Then would be the time, For your lips to meet mine, To look you in the eye, And tell you how I feel, To feel the heat of you, And breathe it deep all in, To finally know at last, At the world's end. [Bottle neck slide Guitar Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] If the end of days was here, Then you would be the one, The one I’d want to see, When everything’s undone, I’d need to see and know, The last light in your eyes, To feel us close together, Beneath the burning skies. [Chorus] [Harmonies] Then would be the time, For your lips to meet mine, To look you in the eye, And tell you how I feel, To feel the heat of you, And breathe it deep all in, To finally know at last, At the worlds end. [A cappella Harmonies] The thing that I would hold. Would be the first and final. The kiss that told you all. Of the things I need to say. [Harmonies] That never ending replay. In the album of my mind. The thoughts of holding you. The kiss of being true. [Chorus] [Harmonies] Then would be the time, For your lips to meet mine, To look you in the eye, And tell you how I feel, To feel the heat of you, And breathe it deep all in, To finally know at last, Then would be the time, For your lips to meet mine, To look you in the eye, And tell you how I feel, To feel the heat of you, And breathe it deep all in, To finally know at last, At the worlds end. [Outro] To finally know at last At the world’s end. To finally know. At. Last.
