lyrics

The Last Dance is Over

They’ve got history; she wants to keep it in the past
They had chemistry but apparently, some things don’t last
She calls him a dreamer and she’s not the only one
He sits alone in the darkness ‘til the clarity of dawn
And it’s over

There was poetry in the letters that he wrote her
And the way she kissed his forehead, eyes, his lips and his throat
Moving together, seamless and slow
But the shapes of these memories are now fractured and they know.

Once we had the world at our fingertips, love within our grasp
But the world weighs hard on our shoulders and it comes to pass:

The last dance is over.
It’s over.

So please don’t lecture me, about how it’s supposed to be
Because it’s over.
And please don’t lie to me, about how great things could be
Because it’s over.
Please don’t lecture me, or think you can lie to me, cos it’s over
