The Last Dance

Headed down that road again
Strangers to lovers, back to friends
Phone rings I go back in time
To the night where I wrote you this lullaby

Well I've been getting high
For forty days and forty nights
Writing stories from the lies I've told in my life

Take a walk down the boulevard
Realize I've gone too far
I need to convince myself
I should just leave us on the shelf

And I've been getting high
For forty days and forty nights
Writing stories from the lies I've told in my life
Turning off to cope
I've run all out of hope

But I'll always save the last dance for you
Same old song and dance we're just singing a different tune
Cheek to cheek, another drink, just us two
I'll always save the last dance for you

Can we go back back back
To where you'd look at me and I'd make you laugh laugh laugh
All my indiscretions must make you question
What you're doing to yourself
It's not enough to say "we sure were something"
You know for me it's all or nothing

And I've been getting high
For forty days and forty nights
Writing stories from the lies I've told in my life
Turning off to cope
I have run all out of hope

And I'll always save the last dance for you
Same old song and dance we're just singing a different tune
Cheek to cheek, another drink, just us two
I'll always save the last dance for you
Same old song and dance we're just singing a different tune
Cheek to cheek, another drink, just us two
And I'll always save the last dance
The last dance for you
