Lyrics

Myles Alannah
 Rockinghorse
 The Last Time I Saw William
 The last time I saw William, he was as good as gone
 He'd packed up all his poetry and his hurtin' songs
 Well they say that he died, but the papers lied
 About our long lost favourite song
 And the last time I saw William, he was all undone
 He'd lost his bag of thunder, and his brave disguise
 He was trying to find some kind of peace of mind with brand new eyes
 But it all came back in shades of black, like a past that's just begun
 And the last time I saw William, he was a man on the run
 He said
 Chorus:
 It's better to fly than to hold on to shaky ground
 It's better to let the feelings die, when they're holding you down
 I saw a long line of loneliness in the corner of his eye
 But I never did see William cry
 Now the years run down the boulevard, and the marquee is long gone
 There's a troubadour in an empty bar, playin' hurtin' songs
 All the gold and praise from the glory days cannot save our souls tonight
 And the last time that I saw William
 He was walking away, walking away from the light
 chorus
 The last time I saw William, he was all undone
