Lyrics

The Last Assembly

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

As I walked to the last assembly,

There were tears in the back of my eyes,

And I saw all my friends all around me,

They were there to wish me goodbye.

As I stood in a line with my comrades,

I felt such a feeling of pride,

And I forgot all the grief and the hatred inside,

As we sang for the very last time.

Gather round, gather round,

Everybody gather round.

Come and join our last assembly,

Let us smile, wipe away all the frowns.

Gather round, gather round,

Everybody gather round.

As we stood at the last assembly,

All my friends came to wish me goodbye.

Gather round, gather round,

Gather round, gather round,

Everybody gather round.

As I stand at the last assembly,

I just can't keep the tears from my eyes.
