LAST LINES

[BeatleloverKT]

We’ve done First Notes and Opening Lines so

it’s time to do Last Lines. What are your most 

memorable last lines of your fav songs? If

you’re so inclined, tell us why also 🎼💜

“And in the end, the love you take

Is equal to the love you make”

The End, Fab 4️⃣

The final lines from this song from the incredible Abbey Road Medley have always resonated 

to me in the deepest way. To me they represent 

equality, purity, love and religion all wrapped up in one. This stands as one of the best last lines ever, imo 🎼💜

[MaVolta]

When the final line is over

And it’s certain that the curtain’s gonna fall

I can hide within your sweet, sweet love forevermore 

The Story In Your Eyes -  Moody Blues

[BeatleloverKT]

“Wrong, do it again

If you don’t eat yer meat, you can’t have any

pudding

How can you have any pudding if you don’t 

eat yer meat?

You! Yes, you behind the bike sheds, stand still

laddy!”

Another brick in the wall, Pink Floyd

I won’t pretend to understand the lyrics

to this song but the last lines are just

about the most clever I’ve ever heard 🎼💜

[Raynyky]

Remember Remember, The 5th of November.

Remember-John Lennon

[BeatleloverKT]

”But if you ask for a rise, it’s no surprise

That they’re giving none away”

Money, Pink Floyd

The above are the official last lines, however

There is an outro of “aways” by David Gilmour

and then a long spoken fadeaway Outro that literally could of been a conversation in a bar. In true Pink Floyd fashion, they always set the bar at the highest

level of creativity. Another reason why I love

them and this song 🎼💜

[MaVolta]

They call it paradise

I don’t know why

You call someplace paradise

Kiss it goodbye 

The Last Resort  -  Eagles 

Isn’t that the truth! My favorite Eagles / Don Henley song.

[EricC227821]

"Sorry, we're so sorry
Don't be sorry
Man has known
And now he's blown it
Upside down and hell's the only sound
We did an aweful job
And now we're just a little too late"

Nobody's Fault - Aerosmith

A diamond in the rough from the Rocks album.  The whole song is timelessly insightful...like it was written by a history professor or something.

[MaVolta]

So much love to make up everywhere you turn

Love we have wasted on the way 

So much water running underneath the bridge

Let the water come and carry us away

Let the water come and carry us away 

Wasted On The Way - CSN

Written by Graham Nash, it was about how much time they wasted trying to get back together and finally record their third and final album.

At some level, this song speaks to everyone about time wasted that we will never get back.

[BeatleloverKT]

One of the best songs in rock n roll. Great message and so true. My personal fav of

theirs 🎼💜

[FluffyBlack]

There must be a thousand voices

Trying to get through.

---"Lord Is It Mine" by Supertramp

[BeatleloverKT]

Dirty deeds, dirty deeds (Done dirt cheap)

Yeah  

Dirty deeds done dirt cheap, AC/DC

[Vexed]

"If everything should turn around
And it's me who feels so down and out
You could be the kind of company
To share a load and know how bad it feels
Everybody needs to have a friend"

"Everybody Needs a Friend" - Wishbone Ash

Always loved these lyrics and the beautiful guitar(s). The first part of the song tells about how he could be a friend when someone is in need. The last lines tell that he hopes they will be a friend if he is in need. Friendship has always been important to me, since growing up moving every couple of years. Make friends then lose them. So I treasure all.

”Sad faces painted over with those magazine 

smiles, heading out to somewhere won’t be 

back for awhile”

Dreamboat Annie, Heart

The title song from this iconic album has 

awesome lyrics and musicality. Just a

gorgeous song 🎼💜

[MaVolta]

Who wants to live forever?

Who wants to live forever?

Forever is our today

Who wants to wait forever anyway?

Who Wants To Live Forever  -  Queen

Written by Brian May for the film Highlander, where the principal character is immortal. Sadly, he faces the loss of his wife who is not. I think it is often forgotten what a brilliant songwriter Brian May is.

[BeatleloverKT]

”In my life I love you more”

In my life, Fab 4️⃣

It’s not just the words, it’s the way Lennon

sings it. This is a beautiful and pure love

song with John at his finest 🎼💜

[Raynyky]

Time-Pink Floyd 

Far away, across the field
The tolling of the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spells

[Vexed]

"Disappear" - Dream Theater 

"You were strong, I was trying
I gave you my hand
I said it's okay
Letting go time to leave here
And I'll carry on
The best that I can
Without you here beside me
Let him come take you home"

Very moving sad song about loss of a loved one and the struggle to go on without them. Loss affects us, past and future.

Putting under sad songs that make you cry.

[MaVolta]

I am the voice of Never-Never-Land

The innocence, the dreams of every man

I am the empty crib of Peter Pan

A silent kite against the blue blue sky

Every chimney, every moonlit sight

I am the story that will read you real

Every memory that you hold dear

Storytime - Nightwish

So yeah, I kinda like this song! 😎

[MaVolta]

Seeing clearer, what I’ve done

I refuse to let things go

i could never once admit I’m wrong

And what do I have to show?

Seeing clearer what’s at stake

And the things I have to change

I just hope I can, it’s not too late

Too get a chance to end this pain

Last Man Standing - Hammerfall

He’s writing about pride, a man who sold his soul to win at all costs. But with age came wisdom, and now he sees how wrong he was, and the need to change his ways. He still has hope. 

Metal has some of the most poignant lyrics in music. 🤘

[BeatleloverKT]

Never heard of them so had to give a listen.

Really good song with a definite message.

Always a chance for redemption if one 

owns up to their choices 

[BeatleloverKT]

”I’m the burning bush, I’m the burning fire

I’m the bleeding volcano”

She’s so cold, Stones

The clever lyrics make me

smile every time 🎼💜

[EricC227821]

"I said I'm hooked on a feeling
And I'm high on believing
That you're in love with me
I'm hooked on a feeling"

Hooked On A Feeling - Blue Swede

Such a joyous song...we could always use more of this.

[1968Hoya46]

Two songs whose last lines express a similar piece of wisdom:

Desperado:  Eagles  (You better let somebody love you before it's too late)

Nature Boy: Nat King Cole  (The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return)

[MaVolta]

Sticking with the amazing lyricist, Bernie Taupin …

I hope you don’t mind

I hope you don’t mind 

That I put down in words 

How wonderful life is while your in the world 

Your Song - Elton John 

[Raynyky]

I'll tell you everything I've learned, and Love is all... he said.

The Boy WithThe Moon and Star on His Head-Cat Stevens

[BeatleloverKT]

”I will stay with you will you stay with me

Just one single tear in each passing year”

Follow you follow me, Genesis

This beautiful love song captures the

essence of never ending love and all

the hope and promise love brings 🎼💜

[TomD857140]

The road goes on forever and the party never ends. Robert Earl Keen

[BeatleloverKT]

”Don’t keep me waiting here 

Lead me to your door”

The Long and winding Road, Fab 4️⃣

I’ve read this song is an ode to their

break up. I know it is one of their most

beautiful songs that ends on a positive

note 🎼💜

[EricC227821]

Won't Get Fooled Again - The Who

"Yeah
Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss"

In the context of the rest of the song, seems to be a call to do a better job of learning from so as to stop repeating History.

[postman29]

"If we had love before, we can have it back, once more."

LOST WITHOUT YOUR LOVE- Bread

[BeatleloverKT]

”Love is all you need, Oh yeah,

She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah

She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah”

All you need is love, Fab 4️⃣

I’ve never been shy about my eternal

love for this song. At the songs end,

they go thru a long chorus of Love is 

all you need with some Cat Calling then

Paul launches into She loves you yeah,

yeah,yeah which is another song I love.

Just so amazingly clever and the perfect

end to a perfect song 🎼💜
