When the Last Curtain Falls - George Jones

There’s no pleasure at all from watching you fall to your knees

'Cause the tables have turned

And I’m finally learning to live and forgive and let go

There’s no sweet revenge at loves angry end and we all need to know

When the last curtain falls with a final goodbye

And the bitter cold darkness of night flood the days of our livee

With the silence so loud we can’t feel it all

There’s no reason or cause to cheer or applaud

When the last curtain falls

--- Instrumental ---

The irony is that you’re wearing the look I once wore

And in truth I’ve longed for this moment to settle the score

But it’s not all that clear now that I’m hearin' you echo

The thoughts of my soul, the justice of time

It’s not really mine and I want you to know

When the last curtain falls with a final goodbye

And the bitter cold darkness of night flood the days of our lives

With the silence so loud we can feel it all

There’s no reason or cause to cheer or applaud

When the last curtain falls

There’s no reason or cause to cheer or applaud

When the last curtain falls…
