[00:02.381]The Last Time I Saw William －Alannah Myles
[00:19.471]The last time I saw William
[00:23.631]He was as good as gone
[00:28.181]He'd packed up all his poetry and his hurtin'songs
[00:36.361]Well they say that he died but the papers lied
[00:40.411]About our long lost favorite song
[00:45.91]The last time I saw William
[00:49.271]He was all undone
[01:02.321]He'd lost his bag of thunder and his brave disguise
[01:11.321]He was trying to find
[01:12.631]Some kind of peace of mind with brand new eyes
[01:19.931]But it all came back in shades of black
[01:23.931]Like a past that's just begun
[01:27.731]And the last time I saw William
[01:32.481]He was a man on the run
[01:35.531]Oh he said it's better to fly
[01:42.101]Than to hold on to shaky ground
[01:46.491]It's better to the let feelings die
[01:52.91]When they're holding you down
[01:53.671]I saw a long line of loneliness
[01:58.221]In the corner of his eye
[02:05.21]But I never did see William cry
[02:17.751]Now the years run down the boulevard
[02:22.61]And the marquee is long gone
[02:26.301]There's a troubadour in an empty bar
[02:30.731]Playin'hurtin'songs
[02:34.971]All the gold and praise from the glory days
[02:39.221]Cannot save our souls tonight
[02:43.601]And the last time that I saw William
[02:47.411]He was walking away walking away from the light
[02:53.461]It's better to fly than to hold on to shaky ground
[03:02.01]It's better to let the feelings die
[03:07.371]When they're holding you down
[03:09.181]I saw a long line of loneliness
[03:13.861]In the corner of his eye
[03:20.471]But I never did see William cry
[03:46.621]The last time I saw William he was all undone
