You’re leaving soon, this I know
I can tell by the conversation’s ebb and flow
But one more time, before you go
Can we dance? Just dance

The music’s playing, I’m standing here
Our memories packed up, and our boundaries clear
Pulling it back, intentions sincere
Can we dance? Just dance

Is one last song with you, too much to ask?
Did I blow it all, did I miss my chance
As a final tribute to our storied past
One last dance, one last dance, one last dance

When you walked in, I saw that smile
Emotions erupted, hadn’t felt in a while
Lost from myself, marriage on trial
Can we dance? Just dance

Reminded of how, I used to be
A searcher, a dreamer, wilder and free
The weight of my world, hadn’t fallen on me
Can we dance? Just dance

Is one last song with you, too much to ask?
Did I blow it all, did I miss my chance
As a final tribute to our storied past
One last dance, one last dance, one last dance

Figuring out how to back away
It’s crazy how painful this all feels today
But I have to go, it’s better this way
Can we dance? Just dance

Grateful for all the time that you gave
You helped me recover, and helped me grow brave
In this stage of my life, and I will not cave
Can we dance? Just dance

Is one last song with you, too much to ask?
Did I blow it all, did I miss my chance
As a final tribute to our storied past
One last dance, one last dance, one last dance…
