"Our time, is pretty much passed".
As much as I enjoyed "That's The Way It Is" as Arthur's "final ride" song, I personally think this would've been better... "Knocking on Heaven's Door" was written in 1973 by Bob Dylan to accompany Sam Peckinpah's Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid, another film about the fading of the Old West and the fate all outlaws are doomed to suffer. Here are the lyrics... The tune is sad and mournful and I think the lyrics fit just perfectly with Arthur's whole story- his time as a killer, his battle against tuberculosis, his quest for redemption and his coming to peace with his own inevitably violent end: "we're thieves in a world that don't want us no more". Let me know what you think in the comments below...
