Cash's Last Days

The crowd roared as I’m blast in the spotlight glow
That magic was the greatest high I’ve ever known
Those years front by just light the whisky and the pills it washed down
It’s amazing now that somehow I am even still around
It was just a matter of time till it all came crashing around

Those days won’t ever come again
No matter how hard I pretend
Wait yes they will now I can see
The star will all become alight
And choose a soil on which to shine
That special space in time is ‘bout to come again
But not for me

God took her now my life is an empty hole
It’s like I lost more just than only half my soul
I thought I was so damn strong but without her tender touch
I’m on a leech all I need it’s the slightest little show
I’d giving anything to go back when we first fell in love

Those days won’t ever come again
No matter how hard I pretend
Wait yes they will now I can see
The star will all become alight
And choose a soil on which to shine
That special space in time is ‘bout to come again
But not for me

The crowd roared as I’m blast in the spotlight glow
God took her and I lost more than half my soul
