"Love Is The Last Thing" lyrics - NITTY GRITTY DIRT BAND

Since she was seventeen, I was her guy
She was the light of my life
Well, of all the silly games we used to play
Love was the first thing we prized.

So unexpectedly became a thief
I heard these things happen but never to me
Left me walking in shadows, stumblin' blind
Searching for ways to get by.

Got to find me a girl who can change my world
And make, make it all worthwhile
Take it all away and my heart sees clear
Love is the last thing
It's just the last thing
Love is the last thing to go.

See all the lights laid out below my feet
The city's so quiet tonight
Someone is waiting for me down there
It's time to get back in this life.

Got to find me a girl who can change my world
And make, make it all worthwhile
Take it all away and it's all so clear
Love is the last thing
It's just the last thing
Love is the last thing, ooh
Oh, it's just the last thing
Love, love is the last thing to go.

Love, it's the last thing.
