歌曲歌詞
The last time I saw William
He was as good as gone
He'd packed up all his poetry and his hurtin' songs
Well they say that he died but the papers lied
About our long lost favorite song
The last time I saw William
He was all undone
He'd lost his bag of thunder and his brave disguise
He was trying to find
Some kind of peace of mind with brand new eyes
But it all came back in shades of black
Like a past that's just begun
And the last time I saw William
He was a man on the run
Oh he said it's better to fly
Than to hold on to shaky ground
It's better to the let feelings die
When they're holding you down
I saw a long line of loneliness
In the corner of his eye
But I never did see William cry
Now the years run down the boulevard
And the marquee is long gone
There's a troubadour in an empty bar
Playin' hurtin' songs
All the gold and praise from the glory days
Cannot save our souls tonight
And the last time that I saw William
He was walking away walking away from the light
It's better to fly than to hold on to shaky ground
It's better to let the feelings die
When they're holding you down
I saw a long line of loneliness
In the corner of his eye
But I never did see William cry
The last time I saw William he was all undone
