The Brilliant Dance

So you buried all your lover's clothes
and burned the letters lover wrote,
but it doesn't make it any better.
Does it make it any better?
And the plaster dented from your fist
in the hall where you had your first kiss
reminds you that the mem - o - ries will--- fade.

So this is strange,
Dmaj7 E7(no3rd) G5
our sidestepping has come to be a brilliant dance
Dmaj7 E7(no3rd) G5
where nobody leads at all,
Dmaj7 E7(no 3rd)
where nobody leads at all. G5
And the picture frames are facing down
and the ringing from this empty ---- sound
is deafening and keeping you from sleep.
And breathing is a foreign task
and thinking's just too much to ask
and you're measuring your minutes by a -- clock that's blinking eights.
This is incredible.
Starving, insatiable,
yes, this is love for the first time.
Well you'd like to think that you were invincible.
Yeah, well weren't we all once before we felt loss for the first time?
Well this is the last time.
This is the last time... This is the last time.
This is the last time.
