And as the music shutters to a stop I rise up and dance to you Where you sit on the timeworn couch I pick you up and lift your chin Do I dare look into your eyes? They might spell out my death They might bring me to life You hold so much power over me The power to make or break me I cower from the vulnerability But I find strength in what must come I lead you outside into the night Past rusty red jukebox It’s melodies long gone and faded We leave behind footprints in the dusty floor And as the full round face rises up Surrounded by her courtiers I lift my eyes to find yours And know that your answer was there all along.
