As the Curtain Came Down Lyrics by Sean McConnell

A Horrible Beautiful Dream

0

[Verse 1]
If I would have known
As the curtain came down
It would stay there for years
I'd have turned right around
Told the boys to keep playing
'Til I wore my voice out
Oh, if I would have known
As the curtain came down
[Verse 2]
I'd have hopped off the stage
Right onto the floor
Sang acapella
Straight to the back door
Raised a toast to the future
Bought the whole place a round
Hell, if I would have known
As the curtain came down
[Chorus]
I'd have sung every note
With a little more passion
With a lump in my throat
And just kept that Epiphone thrashing
I'd have stood on the stage
'Til thеy cut off the sound
Oh, if I would have known
As the curtain camе down
[Verse 3]
I'd have packed up the J-45
A little bit slower
Stood by those amplifiers
And just watched the tubes glowing
Lit up a cigarette
And just hung around
If I would have known
As the curtain came down
[Chorus]
I'd have sang every note
With a little more passion
With a lump in my throat
And just kept that Epiphone thrashing
I'd have stood on that stage
'Til they cut off the sound
Oh, if I would have known
As the curtain came down
[Verse 4]
I'd have sat in the greenroom
I'd have drunk all the wine
Read all the horrible things on the wall
That the bands left behind
I'd have laughed like a school boy
I'd have cried like a clown
Hell, if I would have known
As the curtain came down
Oh, if I would have known
As the curtain came down
