One more time

It's the beginning of the end
or just the end of the beginning, - now pending
Restless - hear my words are bouncin back
it seems they found no home
I'm still here after all those years.
Walk away with dignity
and we'll remember what it used to be.

Play that song just one more time
and we'll bring back memories
of kingdoms in the sun
I'll paint from memory your face, my love.

Is this the time of grand illusion,
war and endless fights?
I watch them all from here
you know it's killing me.
Now there is a new pope every year
and borders don't hold true
Take me back in time
What's a honest man to do?

Play that song just one more time
and we'll bring back memories
of kingdoms in the sun
I'll paint from memory your face, my love.

Time and place for everyone under the sun.

Now no more words from this old pen
and no more speach to follow
Said and done
now fast approach the 1900
One last round - a toast to us
I won't look back
Now change we must - move on

Play that song just one more time
and we'll bring back memories
of kingdoms in the sun
I'll paint from memory your face, my love.
