The 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.
Someone is dancing
On my grave.
Sending shivers
Down my spine.
I hear a laugh,
It awoke my soul.
The wind takes the leafs
Where he wants them to go.
His tunes enchant our world,
Our thoughts and leave us frozen.
In this heart of mine
It's you i'll find.
Take my hand,
I'll take you to the promised land.
You're the one.
I hear a laugh,
It awoke my soul.
The wind takes the leafs
Where he wants them to go.
His tunes enchant our world,
Our thoughts and leave us frozen.
In this heart of mine
It's you i'll find.
Take my hand,
I'll take you to the promised land.
You're the one.
Nevil, whatever you have done,
These tears will fade.
Nevil, whatever you have done,
Please, have faith.
