Lyrics
Save The Last Dance
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Be careful what you wish for
I stand here waiting
Don't panic at the words
They are off my tongue, oh no
Presuming but fear the truth behind a fake smile
And quiver at the thought of a proud kiss - childish, irrelevant denied
Dead conspiracy, just the way I like it
Were sort of retracting reacting to this moment
The house stays empty waiting for you to come
And I cant, and I wont, waste a lifetime
Did I forget to mention that I change direction?
I sent for an angel, how familiar it all seems to be
I approach with caution, left my heart at the office
We can sit and watch the city drown - its just the way I like it
Were sort of retracting reacting to this moment
The house stays empty waiting for you to come
And I cant, and I wont, waste a lifetime
Falling away from it all
