Текст песни: The Last Picturehouse + перевод

Born to entertain us back in 1925

So beautiful and strong enough to bring their dreams alive

Always thought it would last forever

And be the greatest thing they’d ever seen

With a heart like Judy Garland

And a the soul of Jimmy Dean

And while the world was growing

He was so gone with the wind

That the future they were building

Didn’t have a room for him

And now the buildings scrape the skyline

And the stars no longer shine

Cause nothing lasts forever in the changing times

Oh so long and fare thee well

A thousand stories he could tell

Brick by brick they pulled him down

The last picture house in town

The crowds grew smaller though the years

While the candy girls left town

The projector slowly gathered dust

While the house came tumbling down

And at the final curtain calling

He knew a golden age had passed

Cause the lights had finally fallen

And the dreams they didn’t last

Cause now the buildings scrape the skyline

And the stars no longer shine

Cause nothing lasts forever in the changing times

Oh so long and fare thee well

A thousand stories he could tell

Brick by brick they pulled him down

The last picture house in town

Gene Kelly went singing for the last time in the rain

And one more kiss with Betty Davies before the final frame

And as the lights inside the ticket box go fading away

It was the last movie the picture house would play

Oh so long and fare thee well

A thousand stories he could tell

But brick by brick they pulled him down

The last picture house in town
