last chance to see lyrics
by salvia palth
[Verse 1]
A parrot's caw
Something you can't go looking for
Before too long
[Chorus]
I couldn't but wonder
Were you there all along?
Before too long
You too will be long gone
And once you're gone
There's no one 'round to hear your song
[Verse 2]
A graspin' claw
A flash of red to die for
That's what I saw
Walking home from Brooklyn
I couldn't ask for more
I wish I'd been recording
I'd go back to it all
[Chorus]
Before too long
You too will be long gone
And once you're gone
There's no one 'round to hear your song
As if you're on your own
Just a voice without a tone
I couldn't help but wonder
Were you there all along?
