THE LAST SONG

LYRICS

The concert is over, the footlights are low
And so must the curtain fall
I’ll sing one more song now and then I must go
Adieu to you, one and all

Goodbye, so long, fare thee well, au revoir
Goodbye, so long, fare thee well, au revoir

The crowds have departed, the shadows are long
Follow the corridor
The gallery’s vacant, the orchestra’s gone
The choir will sing no more

Goodbye, so long, fare thee well, au revoir
Goodbye, so long, fare thee well, au revoir

Ballerina, kind-hearted one
She is waiting and watching the sun 
Can you see her hiding a frown
Dressed in her angel gown

Now the street lamps are glowing, the river is calm
The city is sleeping, still
A train is approaching announcing the dawn
Many a wish to fulfill

Goodbye, so long, fare thee well, au revoir
Goodbye, so long, fare thee well, au revoir
Goodbye, auf Wiedersehen, fare thee well, au revoir
Goodbye, so long, fare thee well, au revoir…
Fare thee well, au revoir
