The Dance

                Em       Am              C7
Morning comes a-calling, knocking at the door
   F                 C            Dm                G       C
It slipped up on two lovers, it's found them on the floor
                  Em      Am               C7
Sunlight spills a shadow, shading every glance
     F                Fm               C
It's hard to tell the dancers from the dance

                  Em     Am             C7
Footsteps ring so hollow as he tries to lead
F                C       Dm               G      C
Once she used to follow, now there´s just no need
                  Em       Am           C7
Going through the motions, in a lover's trance

Now he's dancing alone down the stairs
           Em     C
Pretending not to care
    F         Fm         C
The ballet is empty of romance
     F                Fm              C

They're so close together, they're so far apart
        F               C                Dm               G      C
They've memorised their lines, but never understood their part
                       Em              Am                   C7
He says, "You'll never live alone, she says, "I'll take the chance"

Waiting for the dawn
