[Verse 1]
Your hand in mine
Room fades out, we stay in focus
Spinning slow
Like the night is trying to hold us
Your hair in my face
I pretend I don’t see morning
If I never blink
Does it keep you from departing
[Chorus]
So I’m dancing with you for the last time
Smiling like I haven’t read the ending
Tracing every line of your back, your spine
Trying to memorize the feeling
How do I go on living without you
When every step I know is tied to you
If this is goodbye, then let me lie
In this last dance
This last dance with you
[Verse 2]
You laugh too soft
Like you’re scared the sound might linger
You squeeze my heart
With the slightest move of your fingers
You say my name
Like a key you’re leaving under
An empty mat
For a house that’s going under
[Chorus]
So I’m dancing with you for the last time
Smiling like I haven’t read the ending
Tracing every line of your back, your spine
Trying to memorize the feeling
How do I go on living without you
When every step I know is tied to you
If this is goodbye, then let me lie
In this last dance
This last dance with you
[Bridge]
When the lights come up
Will your shadow still know mine
Will your sweater on my chair
Keep pretending you’re inside
Do I learn to breathe again
Or just live in borrowed air
If I meet somebody new
Will I look and find you there (oh)
[Chorus]
So I’m dancing with you for the last time
Smiling like I haven’t read the ending
Tracing every line of your back, your spine
Trying to memorize the feeling
How do I go on living without you
When every step I know is tied to you
If this is goodbye, then let me die
For one more glance
In this last dance with you
