Performed by Patti Austin from her album Intimate Patti Austin.
here we are
at the last turn in the road
the two of us both know
there's a heart that's breakin
but that's okay
coz you never said you'd stay
I knew I'd face this day
you'll have to say goodbye
I won't plead I won't cry
I won't bleed and I won't die
I'll just hold my head up high
while I watched you walked away
If this time is the last time
if this night is our last night
then let's not waste a heartbeat
let's hold this moment tight
this time is the last time
then hold me like the first time
baby that will be enough
if this time is the last
time we make love
letting go
of a love that's come and gone
somehow life goes on
we'll get past the sorrow
but when you leave
don't look back at me too long
coz I'm trying to be strong
I can't let you see my pain
I won't plead I won't cry
I won't bleed I will not die
I won't ask the reasons why
as you turned and walked away
If this time is the last time
if this night is our last night
then let's not waste a heartbeat
let's hold this moment tight
if this time is the last time
hold me like the first time
baby that will be enough
if this time is the last
time we make love
some other day, some other time
when you speak my name will you be kind
I'll hold on to your memory
cuz you'll always be a part of me
If this time is the last time
If this night is our last night
let's not waste a heartbeat
let's hold this moment tight
if this time is the last time
hold me like the first time
that will be enough
if this time is the last time
if this time is the last time
if this time is the last
time we make love
