About

As Thompson later explained, he wrote this song for Sandy Denny. Apparently everyone at her funeral commented on her premature death (she was still just 31) and unrealized potential, but he thought that she had glowed brightly for a while, but had nothing else to give as her creativity was stifled b...

That’s All, Amen, Close the Door Lyrics

[Verse 1]
That's all
That's all there was
Say Amen
Close the door
She gave as much
As she had to give
Please don't ask for more
Please don't ask for more

[Verse 2]
That's all
The curtain's down
The lights are up
Go home
Did I care?
Was I in love?
In love enough to know
In love enough to know

[Bridge]
There's precious few
That line that road
She welled from deep
And overflowed
There's no cup
To hold the past
Too rich to drink
Too rich to last
That's all

[Verse 3]
Well, you wish
Well don't wish for me
As if a wish
Could cheat the fall
Oh just believe
And leave it be
There's beauty in what's brief
There's beauty in what's small
That's all

[Bridge]
There's some who dare
And some who shine
And some who only
Drag behind
And some who reap
What others sow
When memories fail
Well who's to know

[Verse 4]
That's all
That's all there was
Say Amen
Close the door
She gave as much
As she had to give
Oh please don't ask for more
Please don't ask for more
That's all
