The Last Song

Close the book, turn out the light
No more day, no more night
The last song is playin' in my mind
The last song, let it go and unwind
Like a string through the sky
Tied to the tail of a butterfly
The last song

Every word I wrote was true
Every 'I', every 'love', every 'you'
The last song is playin' in my mind
The last song, let it go and unwind
Like a string through the sky
Tied to the tail of a butterfly
The last song

The tune it cannot stay
The words have nothin' to say
And the melody, lost at sea, is floating away
