Why This Last Dance? Lyrics

As we dance Here in this empty apartment Echoes of laughter Will haunt me for after Put your memories in boxes Cut all your losses Romance left this place long ago If these walls could talk Then they'd tell me its time to go You gave this place so much color I don?t know why I did not see that before You gave life to this place Without you it?s empty space As we kiss Knowing that it?s our last one Put sheets on the mattress Sleep hasn?t found us Tear the curtains from the window let the world see this last dance And now what was left for us Turn all the lights out Lock the door behind us You gave this place so much color I don?t know why I did not see that before You gave life to this place Without you it?s empty space Someone else gave me pictures of holding the world Talking to cover the screams in the hall I'll sing you to sleep when you?re hurt from the fall And somehow I will miss this all Lets burn this place down Scatter the ashes Paint it with gasoline Start throwing matches Somewhere in this life we made time You gave this place so much color I don?t know why I did not see that before You gave life to this place Without you it?s empty space Someone else gave me pictures of holding the world Talking to cover the screams in the hall I'll sing you to sleep when you?re hurt from the fall And somehow I will miss this? all As we dance Knowing that its our last one If these walls could talk They?d tell us it?s time to go
