The Last Session - One More Song Lyrics

1997 Off-Broadway
The Last Session - One More Song (The Singer and the Song) Lyrics

The song is written by Steve Schalchlin.

Nobody knows the bottom better than you
I don't. They don't.
Nobody has the right to tell you what to do
I don't. They don't.
You were the one who made us believe
You were the one who wrote the songs.
You were the one who made it fun.
You were the one who cared for my son.

Nobody wants to see you go through hell again.
Hospitals. Doctors.
All we can do is vow to hold you through the end.
Hospitals. Doctors.
No one is promised even one more day.
All we can say is we'll be there.
All we can do is show how much we care...

The singer and the song
That's what we become
When you play and let us sing along
They're the songs that give us life
Don't we have a right to ask for one more song

The singer stood in front of the choir he built
and he said, "I'm leavin'.
I love you all but they tell me I am dying
And I'm so tired of crying
And I'm so tired of fighting
I will give up now!
I'll go and die now!

Well, I think the singer made a mistake today
If he thinks the choir will let him fade away

The singer and the song
That's what we become
When you play and when we sing along
You're the one that makes us strong
Don't we have the right
To ask for one more song

If you lose hope
Then we lose hope

If you need hope
We'll give you hope
If you need strength
We'll give you strength
Cuz if you don't live
Then we don't live

You're more than just a song
You're more than just a rhyme
You're more than just a tune that fades away

So is there nothing we can say
To make you want to fight
To make you want to fight
To make you want to fight for one more day

More than the singer
More than the song
More than the singer
More than the song

You are the preacher
You are the nurse
You are the preacher

So give me one more day
One more day.
