Jack and Gillian, facing their decline, | |
take to the dance floor for one final time. | |
Who'd deny them this last shot? | |
Taking a twirl, are they in the final reel – | |
or not? | |
Jack and Gillian, walking hand in hand, | |
disappearing along the shining strand. | |
Who'd deny them this state of grace? | |
So we find them with not a single hair out of place, | |
picture-perfect, matching pace for pace, | |
her head on his shoulder, his arm around her waist. | |
But if you put them on the spot | |
what would they say? | |
Are they in the final reel or what? | |
Sayonara, tschüss, adieu, farewell. | |
Will we meet again? No-one can tell, | |
not the manner, not the time. | |
No-one can hide, no-one leaves the final reel behind. | |
Jack turns to Gillian, misty-eyed, | |
and presses the pills in her hand. | |
All they've got left is the downhill slide | |
so they'd better act while they can. | |
This much they know, | |
they're not in the final reel alone. | |
This much they know, | |
they'll not leave the final reel alone. | |
They take the dive, | |
no-one leaves the final reel alive. |
Jack and Gillian, facing their decline, | |
take to the dance floor for one final time. | |
Who' d deny them this last shot? | |
Taking a twirl, are they in the final reel | |
or not? | |
Jack and Gillian, walking hand in hand, | |
disappearing along the shining strand. | |
Who' d deny them this state of grace? | |
So we find them with not a single hair out of place, | |

All they' ve got left is the downhill slide | |

This much they know, | |

This much they know, | |
