The Famous Final Scene lyrics

Bob Seger

Think in terms of bridges burnedThink of seasons that must endSee the rivers rise and fallThey will rise and fall againEverything must have an endLike an ocean to a shoreLike a river to a streamLike a river to a streamIt's the famous final sceneAnd how you tried to make it workDid you really think it couldHow you tried to make it lastDid you really think it wouldLike a guest who stayed too longNow it's finally time to leaveYes, it's finally time to leaveTake it calmly and sereneIt's the famous final sceneIt's been coming on so longYou were just the last to knowIt's been a long time since you've smiledSeems like oh so long agoNow the stage has all been setAnd the nights are growing coldSoon the winter will be hereAnd there's no one warm to holdNow the lines have all been readAnd you knew them all by heartNow you move toward the doorHere it comes the hardest partTry the handle of the roadFeeling different feeling strangeThis can never be arrangedAs the light fades from the screenFrom the famous final scene
