            Song Lyrics 
            
 
 
 
 
 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
