The Song Is All That Remains

The Song Is All That Remains - Sons Of Bill

Yeah a melody is like a memory

And it circles back the past

And you play your songs while people listen

And you pray to God that it will last

But you learn to love the girls and whiskey

And the crowds screamin' out your name

And you think that you can find redemption

In the hot lights of the stage

But when the show is over

And once again you're all alone

And the whiskey bottle is empty

And the girls have all gone home

And you're back out on the lonesome highway

With nothin' between you and the rain

And you're hoping God is still listening

When the song is all that remains

You ain't been to church in years boy

Yeah you're going to hell I suppose

Along with that girl in your bathroom

And that coc*ine in your nose

Layin' alone on your motel bed

Wonderin' where you changed along the way

From a little boy in virginia

Who just wanted a chance to play

And when the show is over

And once again you're all alone

And the whiskey bottle is empty

And the girls have all gone home

And you're back out on that lonesome highway

With nothin' between you and the rain

And you're hopin' God is still listening

When the song is all that remains

Yeah you're back out on the lonesome highway

With nothin' between you and the rain

And you're hopin' God is still listening

When the song is all that remains
