last to know by Emily Brooke (all of the pieces - unplugged)

"last to know" captures the heartache of realizing that something is amiss in a relationship, where even the subtle changes in your partner's gaze and touch reveal a shift in their feelings, and despite loving them deeply, you wish you could remain blissfully unaware for just a little longer before facing the inevitable end. The single release comes on the heels of Brooke’s previous single “Not Yet,” which explores the transitional phase of a relationship and captures the essence of living in the present while dreaming of what's to come.


Lyrics:
I wish I didn’t know you so well
I can hear the thoughts you keep to yourself
The way that your keys unlock the door
The little extra whiskey that you pour
We used to kiss straight till sunrise
Parked for hours out in your drive
And if I told my friends they’d say I’m crazy
But something feels different bout you baby

Blame it on my intuition
I can tell that somethings missing

I wish it wasn’t so obvious to me
Got a sixth sense you’re about to leave
Your body language is speaking the truth
And if I could I would lie to you
But once it’s there I can’t ignore it
Gonna say how I feel ain’t the kind to force it
Boy I see it coming miles down the road
But I wish I was, yeah I wish I was
The last to know
The last to know
Boy I wish I was the last to know

Cuz if I was maybe we’d have three more weeks
Of you waking up right there next to me
But now that I know that somethings wrong
Boy I just can’t shake it off

Blame it on my intuition
I can tell that somethings missing

I wish it wasn’t so obvious to me
Got a sixth sense you’re about to leave
Your body language is speaking the truth
And if I could I would lie to you
But once it’s there I can’t ignore it
Gonna say how I feel ain’t the kind to force it
Boy I see it coming miles down the road
But I wish I was, yeah I wish I was
The last to know
The last to know
Boy I wish I was the last to know
They say ignorance is bliss and yeah I guess that's true
Cuz then I wouldn’t know that I’m losing you
I wish it wasn’t so obvious to me
Got a sixth sense you’re about to leave
Your body language is speaking the truth
And if I could I would lie to you
But once it’s there I can’t ignore it
Gonna say how I feel ain’t the kind to force it
Boy I see it coming miles down the road
But I wish I was, yeah I wish I was
The last to know
The last to know
Boy I wish I was the last to know
