Our Last Dance

You tell me one thing,

But your lips tell me another.

But I’m not listening,

I’m hiding under cover.

As the bullets of reality

Start raining down on you and me,

Baby, it hurts.

We’ve been hit once before

We thought we’d healed

But, the wounds are still raw.

And I’ve got a thousand reasons

To ask you to stay.

But a thousand more reasons

To turn you away.

So I’ll throw away the keys

Once I’ve locked you inside,

‘Cause now I’ve decided to do what’s right.

I played the fool

In the game that you made.

Backing and forthing

It drives me insane.

So I’m telling you now

If you want another chance,

There’s no point even trying,

‘Cause baby, we’ve danced our last dance.

Your friends are surprised

That you’re running for the exit.

But I knew from the start

That we could never make it.

I was never what you wanted

But I stupidly drank the poison.

Now I’m being haunted

by the demons I ignored the first time.

And I’ve got a thousand reasons

to ask you to stay.

But a thousand more reasons

To turn you away.

So I’ll throw away the keys

Once I’ve locked you inside,

‘Cause now I’ve decided to do what’s right

I played the fool

in the game that you made.

Backing and forthing

It drives me insane.

So I’m telling you now

If you want another chance,

There’s no point even trying,

Baby, we’ve danced our last

Now when we’re talking

I’m treading on ice,

To make sure I don’t go down

The road I’ve been twice

Before, but with you

There's always a danger.

I never expected that we’d become strangers.

But I’m moving on now,

It’s time for goodbye.

Maybe I’ll see you around sometime.

I didn’t see it before,

I was stuck in a trance.

But there’s no point even trying,

Baby, we’ve danced our last dance.

One last kiss.

I can’t take any more of this.
