Last Dance lyrics

I'm so glad you came

I'm so glad you remembered

To see how we're ending

Our last dance together

Expectant, too punctual

But prettier than ever

I really believe that this time it's forever

But older than me now

More constant, more real

And the fur and the mouth and the innocence turned

To hair and contentment

That hangs in abasement

A woman now standing

Where once there was only a girl

I'm so glad you came

I'm so glad you remembered

The walking through walls

In the heart of December

The blindness of happiness

Of falling down laughing

And I really believed that this time was forever

But Christmas falls late now

Flatter and colder

And never as bright

As when we used to fall

All this in an instant

Before I can kiss you

A woman now standing

Where once there was only a girl

(Your name like ice into my heart)

I'm so glad you came

I'm so glad you remembered

To see how we're ending

Our last dance together

Reluctantly, cautiously

But prettier than ever

I really believe that this time it's forever

But Christmas falls late now

Flatter and colder

And never as bright

As when we used to fall

And even if we drink

I don't think we would kiss

In the way that we did

When the woman was only a girl
