Climbed up on the rainbow
Just to see if I'd fall off
I'm a frosted lemon coward
And I don't know how
No, don't know to hold you
Without shaking
No, I'm not aware of how I could possibly love you
Without aching
Yes I give you everything, yes I give you anything
I gave you everything

Got to watch myself I've got to love myself
And take care
And so keep the light on before

Yeah, hop into bed
'Cause, baby, this is the last honest look I'll ever give

I saved up all my sunshine just to see you more clear
I'm a little short on solar but I haven't given in
No, I'm going to hold you anyway
And I'll do it without shaking
Yes, I'll love you always
And I'll do it without aching
Yes, I'd give you anything, yes I'd give you anything
I gave you everything

Got to watch myself I've got to love myself
And take care
And so keep the light on before

Yeah, hop into bed
'Cause, baby, this is the last honest look I'll ever give

I give you everything I give you anything
I gave you everything

Got to watch myself I've got to love myself
And take care, yeah
I gave you, I gave you
I gave you everything

So got to watch myself I've got to love myself
And take care

This is your last love this is your last love this is your last love
Yeah this is your last love
This is your last love this is your last love
And so keep the light on before ya' hop into bed
'Cause, baby, this is the last honest love I'll ever give

    i like the end lyric of the song, with the abrupt way it finishes with 'this is the last honest love ill ever give'. its as though she decided to leave him right as it ends.

He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.

In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
