Famous Last Words — текст песни (Joel Billy)





Sitting here in Avalon, looking at the pouring rain
Summertime has come and gone and everybody`s home again
Closing down for the season, I found the last of the souvenirs
I can still taste the wedding cake and it`s sweet after all these years
These are the last words I have to say
That`s why this took so long to write
There will be other words some other day
But that`s the story of my life
There`s comfot in my coffee cup and apples in the early fall
They`re pulling all the moorings up and gathering at the Legion Hall
They swept away all the streamers after the Labor Day parade
Nothing left for a dream now, only one final serenade
And these are the last words I have to say
Before another age goes by
With all those other songs I`ll have to play
But that`s the story of my life
And it`s so clear standing here where I am
Ain`t that what justice is for?
Frankly, my dear, I don`t give a damn anymore
Stack the chairs on the table tops
Hang the sheets on the chandeliers
It slows down but it never stops
Ain`t it sweet after all these years
And these are the last words I have to say
It`s always hard to say goodbye
But now it`s time to put this book away
Ain`t that the story of my life
