The Interview — текст песни (Saga)

(lyrics by Michael Sadler)
Good afternoon! May I introduce myself?
With a story to be told you may need help
I know you were a headline for some time
But now you`re part of a motionless mime
Lights have dimmed and times have changed
And the world is watching a different stage
Don`t you think it`s time we had a younger face?
You can slip away with no disgrace
So tell me ...
How long should we wait around
Don`t you understand, when you`re down we`re down?
The memory of a lasting fame
Is better fed on reruns, no shame
So tell me ...
There`s one thing I must know
Tell me why you can`t let go
There`s one thing we must know
Tell me, why won`t you let go?
How long do you think you`ll last
Living with a continuous past
As you stare at us we say,
You`re looking less like me each day!
And there`s one thing I must know
Tell me why you can`t let go
There`s one thing we must know
Tell me, why won`t you let go?
Tell me
Why can`t you let go?
