We were dancing in the dark
We danced in the dark
With roses of stained glass falling around us
We danced in the dark
With the quiet murmurs and laughs filling the air around us
We danced in the dark
With swirling silks dancing around our shadows
We danced in the dark
With the thrum of the music to guide us
We danced in the dark
With piercing eyes in the sky watching us
We danced in the dark
With our fingers clasped like an unspoken promise
We danced in the dark
With our feet in the drizzled grass
We danced in the dark
With dreams sparkling in our eyes
We danced in the dark.
Until the roses of stained glass shattered into painful shards
We danced in the dark.
Until the quiet murmurs and laughs were near echoes from the past
We danced in the dark.
Until the swirling silks became the shadows trying to drown us
We danced in the dark.
Until the thrum of the music became a ticking clock
We danced in the dark.
Until the piercing eyes in the sky became malicious onlookers waiting for disaster
We danced in the dark.
Until our fingers felt cold around each other
We danced in the dark
Until the grass became quicksand to swallow us whole
We danced in the dark
Until the dreams in our eyes became nightmares
We danced in the dark;
We danced in the dark until you were gone.
