Our Last Goodbye

[Spoken Intro]

Only five other countries are known to have executed juvenile offenders in the 1990s: Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Nigeria, and Yemen. The US has executed more juvenile criminals than all of them combined, and is the only one known to have put any to death since 1997

There's so much to say

And so little time

I'd like to say thank you

For the moments we shared

They open the blinds

I look through the window

Look into my eyes

And never let go

[Chorus]

And in the moment before you take your last breath

Catch my eye

When you know it's your last embrace

Then we'll say our last goodbyes

And in the moment before you take your last breath

Catch my eye

When you know it's your last embrace

Then we'll say our last goodbyes

There is so much that you don't tell

I never told you how much I felt

Now I give you the full truth

Think only the best of me

Think only the best of me

There's only one thing you should know

Love is sweeter than death

[Chorus]

And in the moment before you take your last breath

Catch my eye

When you know it's your last embrace

Then we'll say our last goodbyes

And in the moment before you take your last breath

Catch my eye

When you know it's your last embrace

Then we'll say our last goodbyes

In 1997 the USA carried out seventy four executions, the highest number for four decades. Only China, Saudi Arabia, and Iran were known to have executed more prisoners

There's so much to say

And so little time

I'd like to say thank you

For the moments we shared

They open the blinds

I look through the window

There's only one thing you should know

Love is sweeter than death

[Chorus]

And in the moment before you take your last breath

Catch my eye

When you know it's your last embrace

Then we'll say our last goodbyes

And in the moment before you take your last breath

Catch my eye

When you know it's your last embrace

Then we'll say our last goodbyes
