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 favourite song
And 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

He said

Chorus:
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

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

chorus

The last time I saw William, he was all undone

  • Still Got This Thing
    "Oh yeah, yeah-yeah
    Why is it so hard to say what's on my mind, 'n why am I so proud
    Still got this thing for you
    I know you understand, but you still need a sign..."
  • Love Is
    "Hard to get, impossible to hold, straight as an arrow, like a burning fuse
    In a long cold dawn, by the side of the road, a hopeless case, a perfect thing
    Show me what you want me to do, 'cos love is what I got for you
    I close my eyes, I search the stars, cry for help, I wake up cold..."
  • Black Velvet
    "Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell
    Jimmy Rogers on the Victrola up high
    Mama's dancin' with baby on her shoulder
    The sun is settin' like molasses in the sky..."
  • Rock This Joint
    "He was Johnny on the spot, he was red hot, walked slow and smoked a lot
    She was a Jukebox Junkie, hand on one hip, great big eyes and bright red lips
    I said hey, yeah-hey-hey
    They eased on out to the centre of the floor..."
  • Lover Of Mine
    "Why do I feel like I'm losing you
    Will it ever become what I've always wanted it to
    You tell me I'm the lucky one, how can you say that
    When it breaks my heart to see another woman with you..."
  • Kick Start My Heart
    "You're kinda cool, a little rough
    You're skin and bones and you talk so tough
    You take your time, you like to make me waiting
    Just when I'm ready to accelerate..."
  • If You Want To
    "Every man I meet is in a hurry to find a new romance
    Always wanna leave the party early, maybe I'd like to dance
    Slowly, if you really wanna know me, take it easy when you hold me
    I might let go..."
  • Just One Kiss
    "I've heard there's always one that's got to get away
    Let him go, even though it's not that easy
    I never listen to what the people say
    I lose control, I let desire lead me..."
