lyrics

I've got nothing left to say that you ain't heard before
At least a thousand times by countless bedroom troubadours
There's no stories left to tell
'Cause we all draw from the same well
So I hate to break the spell but there's no more

I've no lines to help you find your way out of the dark
And no words of wisdom that can mend a broken heart
Just creaking chords and awkward rhymes
The best of which aren't even mine
Oh, you don't need to be so kind but I'm glad you are

CHORUS
Don't be sad but now's the time to bring this curtain down
I’ll take one last bow and leave the stage in style
I don't want to feel so tired
So emptied out, so uninspired
I'm gonna say goodbye to this life for a while

INSTRUMENTAL

Spare a thought for guys like me who sit there writing songs
Lost in worlds of make-believe where we don't quite belong
As the daylight turns to stars
We gently play on our guitars
And while away the wee small hours until it's done

CHORUS
Don't be sad but now's the time to bring this curtain down
I’ll take one last bow and leave the stage in style
I don't want to feel so tired
So emptied out, so uninspired
I'm gonna say goodbye to this life for a while

I'm gonna say goodbye to this life for a while
I'm gonna say goodbye to this life for a while
