| The curtains will close
|
| The lights will go dim
|
| And I’ll change my clothes for the last time, my friend
|
| Gather my roses
|
| Swallow your tears
|
| I may be leaving, but at least I was here
|
| So, goodbye and thank you
|
| It’s my last curtain call
|
| When you hear the applause
|
| Hang my hat on the wall
|
| But I’ll never be far
|
| I’m as close as the wind
|
| So, goodbye and thank you
|
| I’ll see you again
|
| Then, when I walk away
|
| With the dust on my shoes
|
| I’ll hear what you say, so be kind with the news
|
| If things get too loud
|
| And you lose your nerve
|
| Remember, I left you with these words
|
| Goodbye and thank you
|
| It’s my last curtain call
|
| When you hear the applause
|
| Hang my hat on the wall
|
| But I’ll never be far
|
| I’m as close as the wind
|
| So, goodbye and thank you
|
| I’ll see you again
|
| So, I’m closing my eyes
|
| And I’ll picture your face
|
| This beautiful life did not go to waste
|
| Goodbye and thank you
|
| It’s my last curtain call
|
| I can hear the applause
|
| Hang my hat on the wall
|
| Oh, I’ll never be far
|
| I’m as close as the wind
|
| So, goodbye and thank you
|
| I’ll see you again
|
| Oh, goodbye and thank you
|
| I’ll see you again |
