The Fat Lady's Song

WELL…….
The Fat Lady’s song
the nights gone dark, the stars seem like they are a flame
the moon lights the way down that lonely road everyones calling shame
the rivers flows with an undercurrent of dark black black black pain
it’s ready to claim back the sorrows of today even if they are in flames

i can hear the fat lady start to sing her goodbye song of sorrow and love
yeah that fat lady sings a real good song of sorrow and love

it echoes in my ears and rings right round my brain
how could a man like me have been so blind and not realize that it was all a game
of trying to tame a love that was always going to be untamed

i can hear the fat lady start to sing her goodbye song of sorrow and love
yeah that fat lady sings a real good song of sorrow and love

break

i can hear the fat lady start to sing her goodbye song of sorrow and love
yeah that fat lady sings a real good song of sorrow and love

i’d been wringing out the love but i couldn’t give her half enough,
day after day i knew she played along with the act of being in love
but i tell you now i knew the whole scene was really messed up
in the echoes of my mind i knew she’d had enough

i can hear the fat lady start to sing her goodbye song of sorrow and love
yeah that fat lady sings her goodbye song of sorrow and love

night after night my heart turned a dirty black
every time i tried to love i could almost feel her panic attack
i threw my love at her but she just couldn’t give it back
we were riding together but just weren’t on the same side of the track

i can hear that fat lady start to sing her goodbye song of sorrow and love
yeah that fat lady sings a good song of sorrow and love
yeah that fat lady sings a good song of sorrow and love
yeah that fat lady sings one good song of sorrow and love
yeah that fat lady sings a good song of sorrow and love

Nice mate, very nice…The simplistic melody reminds me of your old 4-track stuff..
