Lyrics:

One day a long time ago you slipped a bullet from your belt
And you took my hand and closed my fingers round it
And ever since that day I've held on tight to what you felt
Never knowing that I'd ever be without it should've asked

Is this really your last bullet that I'm holding in my hand
Or is it just another keepsake for when you move on
Is this really your last bullet that you gave to me
Or is it only 'til you have to say so long

One day at a time you said but one day can seem so long
You lost your way and you wouldn't let me help you find it
You said you needed time I gave you all I could I did all a man can do
But don't blame me if I pestered you, it's because I love you like I do

Is this really your last bullet that I'm holding in my hand
Why do you hide your love or are you keeping it for someone new
And if it's not really your last bullet that you gave to me
Then I think that the only one you're running from is you

So when you came back from where you've had to go
And your heart is crystal clear
I hope you wear that around your waist without a single bullet there
And if I see just what I want to see then no words need be said
I'll know that moving on was not for you you've came back to me instead

And then I'll know that I'm really your last bullet and I can live again
And you can change and grow and do most anything that you care won't you come on home
But if it's not to be and I'm truly not your last bullet
Then I think it's more than any mortal man can bear

Come back's the only words I want to hear
