LAST LAUGH
LYRICS BY CHRISTOPHER ALAN HUNT
MUSIC BY DAVID ALLEN MORGAN
© 1980

I WANTED TO HURT YOU
CAUSE YOU DIDN'T NEED ME
I WANTED TO HURT YOU
CAUSE YOU SET ME FREE

ALL MY PLANS BACKFIRED
THERE WAS NO WAY
NOW I'M THE ONE
WITH A HIGH PRICE TO PAY

CHORUS
IF I HADN'T TRIED TO GET THE LAST LAUGH
I WOULDN'T BE CRYING NOW
(REPEAT AGAIN)

I USED EVERY TACTIC
WANTED TO BE REPAID
BUT, YOU WERE PROTECTED
BY THE LOVE THAT YOU GAVE

I TOOK LOVE FOR GRANTED
AND HELD BACK ON YOU
I THOUGHT I WAS WINNING
AND NOW I'M JUST BLUE

REPEAT OF THE CHORUS

BRIDGE

I SHOULD HAVE LOVED YOU
SHOULD HAVE TURNED IT INSIDE-OUT
BUT, I LEARNED QUICKLY
WHAT THE LAST LAUGH IS ABOUT

 
NOW, YOURE HAPPY WITHOUT ME
YOU'LL FIND SOMEONE NEW
IF I HAD THROWN IT ASIDE
I MIGHT STILL BE WITH YOU

REPEAT OF THE CHORUS AND OUT
