The Dark Waltz

On a crowded dance floor, we held each other close
As the band played soft and low
They played a sad song which no one's ever heard
And everybody knows
But they heard when you said that you loved me
Despite all of my faults
I know there's a light at the end of this dark waltz
A light at the end of the dark waltz

And I didn't know you, didn't know your name
But I knew where you would be
All their eyes were on you, you looked straight through them
And you walked away with me
What's the good if you find all that treasure
Lock it away in a vault?
Away from the light at the end of the dark waltz

There's no use in pretending
This waltz will have to end
That won't stop me starting again

When this dance is over, the band won't play one more
And they'll turn on all the lights
And you'll move away from me, I'll lose you in the crowd
As the singer says "Goodnight"
Will you watch as I stumble and stagger
Back to the place where time halts?
There must be a light at the end of the dark waltz
A light at the end of the Dark Waltz
A light at the end of the Dark Waltz
