The hands are reaching for the three and the twelve
But the limbs in the light are fading
The tangled figures, they're all stages despite
The secret life she's parading
And silence in can speak and sing you the ways
A cabaret where second-hand arts can play
A classic dance between the fringe and the fray
Where the hips can play
Romance in a slow dance
At the scene of a scar
Laces lovers and hearts in the west
Take a chance
Make the heat in the sheets like no one can
She shakes and makes her whispers barely discreet
While the peace and the breath start to quicken
A foreign shadow slowly enters the room
To prove that he's not the victim
They dance in the dark, locking rhythms with art
A fragile creature burns at the seams
A dash of its passion in a violet flash in it
Puts an end to all that's a dream
Romance in a slow dance
At the scene of a scar
Laces lovers and hearts in the west
Take a chance
Make the heat in the sheets like no one can
Dance like no one can
Dance like you can
She's gonna get it
She's gonna get it
Dance like no one can
Oh yeah
She don't know what's coming
Romance in a slow dance
At the scene of a scar
Laces lovers and hearts in the west
Take a chance
Make the heat in the sheets like no one can
Romance in a slow dance
At the scene of a scar
Laces lovers and hearts in the west
Take a chance
Make the heat in the sheets like no one can
Dance like no one can
