lyrics
(the last song) They start putting their coats on somewhere in the second verse A theatre emptying is a tide that makes a sound like paper And I have sung the last song of the night for nine years To a room deciding, politely, that it has had enough And you do not sing it smaller That is the entire discipline You sing it exactly the size it was written Standing ovation, standing ovation For the people who are already at the door Standing ovation, standing ovation I give it to them anyway, every night, all of it Sometimes one person stays. Not for me. For the quiet. And that is enough architecture to hold up a whole career. Standing ovation, standing ovation For the people who are already at the door Standing ovation, standing ovation I give it to them anyway, every night, all of it Standing ovation, standing ovation I give it to them anyway, every night, all of it (all of it...)
