You were my darlin' light
everything was gonna be all right
and you were my everything
boy, once you could make me sing
well, I ain't gonna fly away
and I ain't gonna cry all day
but I might spread my wings
I've gotta do so many things
and I'm gonna love again
though I'm never gonna be the same
and baby, it's the last dance
my mind won't let me sleep
and baby, it's a stormy love
and this world may knock my looks
and this world may burn my books
but I ain't gonna fly away
and I ain't gonna cry all day
but I might spread my wings
I've gotta do so many things
and I'll turn my red light on
let it shine when the sun is gone
and baby, it's the last dance
soon I will be leaving
baby, it's the last dance
I'll pack my boots and pearls
baby, it's a stormy world
and you were my everything
