Lyrics When the Last Curtain Falls - Patty Loveless

Even though it still hurts
From the words that you threw at me
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, 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 the final goodbye
And the bitter cold darkness of night
Floods the days of our lives
With the silence so loud
We can't feel at all
There's no reason or cause
To cheer or applause
When the last curtain falls

Well the irony is
Your 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
Hearing you echo the thoughts of my soul
The justice of time
Is really not mine
And I want you to know

When the last curtain falls
With the final goodbye
And the bitter cold darkness of night
Floods the days of our lives
With the silence so loud
We can't feel at all
There's no reason or cause
To cheer or applause
When the last curtain falls

There's no reason or cause
To cheer or applause
When the last curtain falls
