Verse 1

Pinky swear, if I do tell a lie
I’m willing to swallow needles or anything Monday
It doesn’t matter if it’s Sunday
Mirror, Mirror on the wall
Who would give me the most fairest love of them all?
No need to ask cause it’s my darling

Chorus

I want you to be my last
If I had to keep being separated from you like this
I’d rather die
I’d rather die
I choose you over three meals a day
If I had to keep being separated from you like this
I’d rather die
I’d rather die

Verse 2

Still, sometimes my heart is being unfaithful
Even tho it’ll never be cured, I’m gonna cure it anyway, baby
Yeah, I ain’t nothin but ya baby
“You don’t know what you got till it’s gone”
I’m sick and tired of repeating that same old cliché Goodbye
Oh, don’t you ever say bye-bye
Eh

I want you to be my last
If I had to keep being separated from you like this
I’d rather die (I’d rather die)

I’d rather die (I’d rather die)
I’d rather die (I’d rather die)
