It’s been so longThe ballroom emptyLost footstepsEchoing in the silenceEvery cough or clearing throatA grave dangerA step back
But the melody is in the distanceThe chairOrchestration indoorsAudiences presentUnmuffled laughterVisible smilesCrowded stadiums
Is that what life used to be like?It’s been so longBut the melody is engraved in my veinsThe old notes coming up my throatIt’s been so longBut it’s so close f we could keep going a little longer
