THE CARDIGANS LYRICS



"Last Song"




the night she died in the rented room

as the whole town was sleeping

she held her breath like a star in bloom

could burn down tomorrow



the summer breeze was caressing me

as I walked through the market

the golden light of a friend beside

had died out for good



now nothing can amaze me

as everything's behind me

no, nothing else can please me

since all I had has been set free



the night before in the dining room

I recall it now

she said "I fear for you my friend

cause I'll soon be leaving"



the autumn comes just like other years

but I won't see the signs

the sun above is sowing magic seeds

but it wants someone back...
