In the dim-lit room, I saw your trace
Saying goodbye without a face
We traded truths with veils of lies
And lost our words in lullabies

Beneath the low and dusky glow
You laughed, so soft, so long ago
I reach for you inside my dream
But all you are now is a gleam
Though I knew we couldn’t stay
I danced the night you slipped away


Cigarette smoke, and bitter brew
Your message left unread, still new
Somewhere beneath this city light
I hope this beat will hold you tight

In fading light, we held on tight
That silent night still haunts my mind
I’d rather ache than let it fade
The music moves where words can’t stay


Like a record cracked in time
I loop the steps that once were mine
Replay the days you used to be
A ghost inside this melody

If this melody should end
The morning sun begins again
So let me dance, don’t make it right
Let me keep dancing through the night
