Swansong

(альбом: Red Star - 1977)

Tonight's the night, I'll get stage fright
For the last time I pray it will be the night of nights
'Cause I won't lack zest, I'll give my best
And show the magic's still there as I sing, over and over

I'll open strong, with my hit song
It was all just a dream when it made me a star
But it's sad to say, I'll fade away
Before an empty hall I'll make my bow
Just a has-been my image wore thin
I'll just sing on this dying swansong

The fanfare blows, oh well here goes
As I hear my first chord I can feel something strange
But the feeling's good, it warms my blood
The lights go on I can't believe my eyes
I see people, thousands of people
They're all cheering, they're all singing
