I've always tried to level with you eye to eye   I finally found the devil in you by and by      But I don't really want to be the   Last one singing the blues   When it comes to fiction you're the best I've met   But all those little lies   Are gonna get you yet      But I don't really want to be the   Last one singin' the blues   You say that you love me   But if you really love me   Then why do you treat me this way   Your game is that you're gone again   It's off and then it's on again   Well someday I won't play   If all I do is catch you in the same old lies   I'll just have to look at you   With different eyes      'Cause I don't really want to be   The last one singin' the blues   You say that you love me   But if you really love me   Then why do you treat me this way   Your game is that you're gone again   It's off and then it's on again   Well someday I won't play   (Don't forget the break)   Well fate will soon determine you're the one to lose   I'll be the one who's handin' you your walkin' shoes      'Cause I don't really want to be   The last one singin' the blues   Yeah, I don't really want to be   The last one singing the blues
