[Verse 1]
Your hand in mine
Shaking a little
But still so warm
The clock on the wall
Pretends it’s not moving at all
You smile that smile
Like you already know what comes next
“I’m ready
” you say
“Just hold me
Don’t look at the door”
[Chorus]
So we’ll take our last dance in the half-light
Slow turn in a borrowed room
If this is goodbye to this lifetime
Let me spend every last breath on you
When you fade into the light
Love
Leave your heartbeat here in my chest
We’ll turn this small goodbye
Into our biggest yes
[Verse 2]
Bare feet on wood
Your head on my shoulder
You hum along
To nothing at all
Just the sound of your breath
Staying strong
You trace my scars
Like a map of the roads that we walked
“I’m not really gone
”
You whisper it low in the dark
[Chorus]
So we’ll take our last dance in the half-light
Slow turn in a borrowed room
If this is goodbye to this lifetime
Let me spend every last breath on you
When you fade into the light
Love
Leave your heartbeat here in my chest
We’ll turn this small goodbye
Into our biggest yes
[Bridge]
If there’s a doorway
I’ll meet you there someday (oh)
Follow your footprints
Through every sunrise haze
Until then I’ll be spinning
With the ghost of your touch
Learning to let go
Without losing our love
[Chorus]
So we’ll take our last dance in the half-light
Slow turn in a borrowed room
If this is goodbye to this lifetime
Let me spend every last breath on you
When you fade into the light
Love
I’ll feel you in every breath
We’ll turn this small goodbye
Into our biggest yes
