I remember how you cried when you got that call today
I knew that something died inside, said they'd gone another way
All the years you sacrificed, all you had to throw away
To become a beacon of a hope you can't sustain
A broken clocks right twice a day, but she feels wrong in every way
And it don't matter what I say
She saying, goodbye to champagne dreams, so long to not what it seems
The credits roll, she'll let it go tonight
Sings a swan song to broken schemes, farewell to silver screens
Credits roll, she'll let it go tonight
There she goes crawling back to the place she left behind
And she'll feel them on her neck as she gets back to the grind
Penny for the sideways glance, as she sinks back in their lives
Nickel for the callous stare that pierce her like they're knives
A broken clocks right twice a day, but she feels wrong in every way
And it won't matter what I say
She saying, goodbye to champagne dreams, so long to not what it seems
The credits roll, she'll let it go tonight
Sings a swan song to broken schemes, farewell to silver screens
Credits roll, she'll let it go tonight
As I pack my bag beside her, small comfort I provide her
I let her into my heart, now it's runnin' away
So, I cut my ties that bind and I leave it all behind
To find a place where we can hide and we can thrive
She saying, goodbye to champagne dreams, Ah-oh-oh
So long to not what it seems, Ah-oh-oh
The credits roll, she'll let it go tonight. Ah! Oh-oh! AAAH
Sings a swan song to broken schemes, farewell to silver screens
Credits roll, she'll let it go tonight. Oh, yeah, she's cryin' out
Tonight. Tonight! Yeah-ah! Tonight. Tonight! Yeah-ah
The credits roll, she'll let it go tonight
Tonight. Tonight! Yeah-ah! Tonight. Tonight! Yeah-ah
The credits roll, she'll let it go tonight! Tonight
