Let Us Dance

In the beginning,

We were fools.

Chasing each other around a rosebush full of thorns

Lost in the beauty of love

But we were too young to understand why

And now we know and stay up all night and cry.

Since then, there have been blood and sweat and tears

Arguments and pain going on for years

Drowning us, burying us in the deepest of graves

Scratching at the coffin, trying to escape

But when the moment comes we get swept away,

All over again, lost in the love of our best friend

But life is a cycle and soon you see

That escape was a trap, the grave was destiny

But for tonight, let me hold you tight

Look into those starry eyes and remember why

I chased you around and around.

Remind me why you're worth being put in the ground

Tickle my lips with yours

Brush away the pain

And for tonight...

Let us dance in the rain
