[01:50.24]The smile of dawn
[01:52.34]Arrived early May
[01:54.66]She carried a gift from her home
[01:58.57]
[01:59.22]The night shed a tear
[02:01.42]To tell her of fear
[02:03.57]And of sorrow and pain
[02:05.88]She'll never outgrow
[02:08.56]
[02:08.79]Death is the first dance, eternal
[02:13.14]
[02:13.66]There's no more freedom
[02:18.86]The both of you will be confined to this mind
[02:31.11]
[02:37.74]I was told there's miracle for each day that I try
[02:44.35]I was told there's a new love
[02:46.95]That's born for each one that has died
[02:50.86]I was told there'd be no one to call on
[02:54.67]When I feel alone and afraid
[02:57.49]I was told if you dream of the next world
[03:01.16]You'll find yourself swimming in a lake of fire
[03:08.19]
[03:08.58]As a child, I thought
[03:10.77]I could live without pain without sorrow
[03:17.77]As a man, I've found it's all caught up with me
[03:23.31]I'm asleep yet I'm so afraid
[03:35.10]
[03:35.99]Somewhere like a scene from a memory
[03:40.82]There's a picture worth a thousand words
[03:45.31]Eluding stares from faces before me
[03:49.96]It hides away and will never be heard of again
[03:54.78]
[03:55.02]Deceit is the second without end
[03:58.69]
[03:59.05]The city's cold blood teaches us to survive
[04:03.84]Just keep my heart in your eyes and we'll stay alive
[04:10.35]
[04:11.63]The third arrives...
[04:16.91]
[08:16.73]Before the leaves have fallen
[08:22.79]Before we lock the doors
[08:29.91]There must be the third and last dance
[08:33.32]This one will last forever
[08:37.31]Metropolis watches and thoughtfully smiles
[08:41.15]She's taken you to your home
[08:44.75]
[08:45.96]It can only take place
[08:48.29]When the struggle between our children has ended
[08:53.92]Now the Miracle
[08:56.12]And the sleeper know that the third is love
[09:04.01]
[09:04.70]Love is the Dance of Eternity
[09:14.42]
