Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

We both sat there in denial

I was miles away

You dusted off your old flats

And you practiced your plies

Blank stares across an empty vacuum of stubbornness and vanity

Instead of saying what you really mean

 You just dance away from me

I know your shadows

I'm engrossed in silhouette

You know just how that dance goes, my Queen of Pirouette

Cold breezes and colder shoulders to make this night complete

Do I dare drag my feet

Dare to sleep alone?

 Will you keep dancing to the beat?

I know your shadows

I'm engrossed in silhouette

You know just how that dance goes, my Queen of Pirouette

Yeah ay yeah

Yeah ay yeah

Yeah ay yeah

Yeah ay yeah

I will scream it from the rooftop

Get this out of me

 And bellow out of key

I'm too tired

And now I just want to fall asleep

But you just dance away from me

I know your shadows

I'm engrossed in silhouette

You know just how that dance goes, my Queen of Pirouette
