They're cleaning up the confetti It's an empty room Plastic cups in the corner Many times you have carried me Higher up than I could reach But this time you're on my shoulders And while there's something to talk about And while there's something to say I promise you I won't be gone on the day the dance is over I will be your song Keep holding on On the day that the dance is over I will be your song You can put away your costume You can be yourself There is nothing to be scared of They can turn all the lights out Leave us standing in the dark But I'm not going anywhere, love And while there's something to talk about And while there's something to say I promise you I won't be gone on the day the dance is over I will be your song Keep holding on On the day the dance is over I will be your song I know the party is over I know that all good things must end But I believe there is music in the silence And while there's something to talk about And while there's something to say I promise you I won't be gone on the day the dance is over I will be your song Keep holding on On the day that the dance is over I will be your song
