Last Post On the Bugle

If I have to go

I will be thinking of your love

Oh, somehow you'll know

You'll know, I'm thinking of your love

Slyly they whispered away

As I played the last post on the bugle

I heard them say, "Oh, that boy is no different today

Except in every single way"

If I have to go

I will be thinking of your love

Oh somehow you'll know

You'll just know

I'm thinking of your love

Oh, I was carried away

Caught up in an affray as they led him away, he sang

"We'll meet again someday

Oh, my boy, there's a price to pay"

If I have to go

I will be thinking of your love

Oh, somehow you'll know

I don't know how, but you'll know

I'm thinking of your love

La, la, la, la, la, la, la

La, la, la, la, la, la, la

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

La, la, la, la, la, la

So, so alone

Locked in a room, waiting till kingdom come

Although I felt elated, I felt like I was scum

I was carried away

Caught up in an affray as they led him away, he sang

"We will meet again someday

Oh, my boy, oh, there's a price to pay"

Feels like I've never been away

Though it's been longer than I could possibly say

I've been wandering the market, carryin' a sign

The end of the world is nigh

I am glad to see we're still tight

The bonds that tie a man are tight

Yet we do what we do

With ritual habituality

All through the night
