The Last Dance Lyrics by Vagabond Opera

Sing For Your Lives

0

The confetti has fallen, it’s over, now we’ve had our fun
Oh, the clothes that we wore yesterday now are coming un-spun
Fill your glasses with memories ‘cause soon they’ll be all that you’ve won
‘Cause the friends that we have are what matters when all’s said and done
So take off your coat
Let’s have a bottle and float
Through the streets of fair Constantine
And when the lamps are down low
And it’s the end of the show
And our ships are headed to sea
Oh, all that I ask
As we put corks in our flasks
And bade farewell to fair Terpsichore
When it’s time to go
Please save the last dance for me
Do you remember the days made of clover and rose-colored rain?
So sweet and oh shit, well I’m drunk on nostalgia again
Still, what else have we got when the choir sings its last refrain
But a pocket of hours that spill like a runaway train
Oh, when the world becomes heavy
With progress and power
And we’re too numb even to scream
And when the lights go out
And all we hear are the shouts
Of all breaking apart at the seams
And the horsemen of four
Oh, right through your door
And wake you up from your dreams
Oh, promise me this
You’ll save the last dance for me
Oh, the red moon is rising
Like a dark horse from the cave
White orchids drop petals
Oh, onto these roads that we pave
When the rockets flared red
Oh, we danced on the tips of our graves
And took to the oak, to the book
Oh, and prayed to be saved
When the rains crashing down
And the world starts to drown
And the rats take to the galleys to flee
And the ship of nightmares
Oh, raises its flags
And demons start pouring the tea
And on the bow-tip, we gracefully sit
And welcome the water with glee
Oh, promise me this
You’ll save the last dance for me
Oh, promise me this
You’ll save the last dance for me
Promise me this
You’ll save the last dance for me
