The Last Picture Show Songtext
von Arcade High

I′m folding back onto where I started
Johnny says I'm outta touch
It′s flooding back all the memories I lacked
But I still use them as a crutch
Well someone told me it's the sign of the times
We're on a full collapse and we don′t know why, they said
"It gets easier in the end"

It′s closing time in this polluted town
Billy said he's had enough
He hit the road, but his car lost control
It′s always flames that deliver us
He'd fall asleep while serving drinks at the bar
It paid the bills but didn′t get very far, he said
"It will be easier in the end"


It was a different kind of love
(Whoa-oa)
It was a different kind of love
(Whoa-oa)
It was a different kind of love
(Whoa-oa)
It was a different kind of love
(Whoa-oa)
It was a different kind of love

And now it's strange how the town barely changed
Tiresome and obvious
The old marquee has been replaced with a screen
And it′s already out of touch
The flickering lights from the old 35
If something's still remembered then can it really die? I said
"It's never easy in the end"


It′s just a different kind of love
(Well someone told me it′s the sign of the times)
(Whoa-oa)
It was a different kind of love
(Well someone told me it's the sign of the times)
(Whoa-oa)
It was a different kind of love
(Well someone told me it′s the sign of the times)
(Whoa-oa)
It was a different kind of love
(Well someone told me it's the sign of the times)
(Whoa-oa)
It was a different kind of love

But the flames still travel
If they can′t catch me (catch me, catch me, catch me)
I'm much too fast
If they can′t catch me (catch me)
I'm already gone
