Verse 1
As we dance here in
this empty apartment
Echoes of laughter
will long live here after
Put your memories in boxes
And cut all your losses
Romance left
this place long ago
If these walls
could talk
Theyd tell me
-C#/F- x2
its time to go
Refrain
You gave this place
so much color
I dont know why I
did not see
that before
You gave life
to this place
Without you
its empty space
Verse 2
As we kiss knowing
that its our last one
Pull the sheets
from the mattress
Sleep hasnt found us
Take the curtains
from the window
Let the world see
this last dance
And now what
is left for us
Turn all the
lights out
Lock the door
behind us
(Repeat Refrain)
Chorus
Someone else can
hang pictures
over holes in the walls
Duck and take cover from
the screams in the hall
Sing you to sleep when
youre hurt from the fall
/ / x2
And somehow I will miss this all
Verse 3
Let's burn this place down
and scatter the ashes
Paint it with gasoline
and start throwing matches
Somewhere in this wreck
remains dying love
(Repeat Refrain)
(Repeat Chorus except last line)
And somehow I will miss this all
Outro
As we dance knowing
that its our last one
If these walls could talk
theyd tell us
its time to go
