|
Think in terms of bridges burned |
|
Think of seasons that must end |
|
See the rivers rise and fall |
|
They will rise and fall again |
|
Everything must have an end |
|
Like an ocean to a shore |
|
Like a river to a stream |
|
Like a river to a stream |
|
It's the famous final scene |
|
And how you tried to make it work |
|
Did you really think it could |
|
How you tried to make it last |
|
Did you really think it would |
|
Like a guest who stayed too long |
|
Now it's finally time to leave |
|
Yes, it's finally time to leave |
|
Take it calmly and serene |
|
It's the famous final scene |
|
It's been coming on so long |
|
You were just the last to know |
|
It's been a long time since you've smiled |
|
Seems like oh so long ago |
|
Now the stage has all been set |
|
And the nights are growing cold |
|
Soon the winter will be here |
|
And there's no one warm to hold |
|
Now the lines have all been read |
|
And you knew them all by heart |
|
Now you move toward the door |
|
Here it comes the hardest part |
|
Try the handle of the road |
|
Feeling different feeling strange |
|
This can never be arranged |
|
As the light fades from the screen |
|
From the famous final scene |
