As we dance
|
Here in this empty apartment
|
Echoes of laughter
|
Will haunt me for after
|
Put your memories in boxes
|
Cut all your losses
|
Romance left this place long ago
|
If these walls could talk
|
Then they'd tell me its time to go
|
|
You gave this place so much colour
|
I don¡¯t know why I did not see that before
|
You gave life to this place
|
Without you it¡¯s empty space
|
|
As we kiss,
|
Knowing that it¡¯s our last one
|
Put sheets on the mattress,
|
Sleep hasn¡¯t found us
|
Tear the curtains from the window let the world see this last dance
|
And now,
|
What was left for us
|
Turn all the lights out
|
Lock the door behind us
|
|
You gave this place so much colour,
|
I don¡¯t know why I did not see that before
|
You gave life to this place,
|
Without you it¡¯s empty space
|
|
Someone else can hang pictures over the holes in the walls
|
Duck and take cover from screams in the hall
|
Singing you to sleep when you¡¯re hurt from the fall
|
And somehow I will miss this¡¦ all
|
|
Lets burn this place down
|
Scatter the ashes
|
Paint it with gasoline
|
Start throwing matches
|
Somewhere in this wreck remains dying love
|
|
You gave this place so much colour
|
I don¡¯t know why I did not see that before
|
You gave life to this place
|
Without you it¡¯s empty space
|
|
Someone else can hang pictures over the holes in the walls
|
Duck and take cover from screams in the hall
|
Singing you to sleep when you¡¯re hurt from the fall
|
And somehow I will miss this¡¦ all
|
|
As we dance
|
Knowing that its our last one
|
If these walls could talk
|
They¡¯d tell us it¡¯s time to go
|
