One More Time

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.
