Lyrics
[Verse 1] The ballroom emptied first Then the hallway lights went dim Your name was still on the list But the room had gone so thin I heard a violin sigh From a place behind the wall Your chair faced the empty stage Like you never left at all [Pre-Chorus] And the needle kissed the groove Like it knew what not to say Every note got closer Every shadow found its shape [Chorus] It’s the last song playing (The last song playing) Don’t turn around It’s the last song playing It knows your name (It knows your name) It won’t let go It’s the last song playing [Verse 2] A phone lit up on the floor With a message left unsent The mirror learned your face Then forgot what kindness meant The drummer missed one beat Then he missed the second one And in the pause between the bars I heard a second voice hum [Pre-Chorus] And the needle kissed the groove Like it wanted one more turn Every note got colder Every candle started to burn [Chorus] It’s the last song playing (The last song playing) Don’t turn around It’s the last song playing It knows your name (It knows your name) It won’t let go It’s the last song playing [Bridge] Now the doors won’t open Now the walls are breathing slow You can hear the chorus From the place below I tried to stop it But my hands were full of dust The final line kept circling Like it fed on us [Chorus] It’s the last song playing (The last song playing) Don’t turn around It’s the last song playing It knows your name (It knows your name) It won’t let go It’s the last song playing [Outro] The last song playing Still playing The last song playing Still playing
