Don't be ashamed old friend
  We gave it our best try
  We came as close as we could get
  To makin' it this time
  Something like this calls for celebration
  So get on the phone and make a reservation
  
  I'll put on my fancy evening dress
  And slip into my dancin' shoes
  We're gonna make the most of this mess
  And paint the town blue
  
  We'll dance all night long
  Like we used to do
  And we will make believe that
  All our dreams are coming true
  Everyone will think
  We're out for a good time
  Little will they know
  We're out for the last time
