Swansong

Tonight's the night, I'll get stage fright For the last time I pray it will be a 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, ah 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
