May I Have This 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.
This is what it's come to
I don't just get bored
I'm way too tired
To pass the matches baby
And will set this whole damn place on fire
This air is choking
This charade is awfully stifled
And I'm starting to feel youth
Is wasted on the young and idle
Let the Earth stand still
We are unfulfilled
This is our last chance
If not now then when
Raise a glass and let's begin
Like it's our last chance to dance
We've made enough excuses
Told enough white lies
To make us happy
And I am ever ready
To go ahead put all
These sins behind me
These ghosts are vapors
This foundation's worn and rotten
So let's strike it up, let's shake it
Till this world has been forgotten
Let the Earth stand still
We are unfulfilled
This is our last chance
If not now then when
Raise a glass and let's begin
Like it's our last chance to dance
I've been trying
Much too hard
For much too long
Now I'm feeling stupid
I'm feeling old
I'm feeling scarred
Let the Earth stand still
We are unfulfilled
This is our last chance
If not now then when
Raise a glass and let's begin
Like it's our last chance to dance
