The Final Dance

Close together nothing mattered
Only you and me and air and love
Yeah we dreamed of taking on the world.

We were finding silver linings
In ourselves and God, how could we know
One of these days, our dreams would hurt?

Let me fly, let me fly, I have learned to live without you by my side
Let me fly, let me fly, may I only have this final dance tonight.

Lying by you cannot break through
Try to read in your unseeing eyes
There's a body, but I miss your soul.

Cannot grasp you as I ask you
If you're gonna be alright tonight
All you say is that you wouldn't know.

Let me fly, let me fly, I have learned to live without you by my side
Let me fly, let me fly, may I only have this final dance tonight.

Like an illness empty stillness
Slowly creeped inside our weakened hearts
As it seems there's nothing left to say.

Live your own life be a good wife
To the one that brings you peace of mind
'Cause tomorrow is a better day.

Let me fly, let me fly, I have learned to live without you by my side
Let me fly, let me fly, may I only have this final dance tonight.
