We danced beneath the chandelier light Your hand in mine felt like forever right Every turn we took, the world fell away Just you and me in our private ballet Your eyes promised stars we’d never lose But time was listening, waiting to choose The music stopped, the lights went red The floor cracked open where we bled We were love in the fire, burning so bright! Now ashes of our waltz drift into the night! I scream your name through the smoke and the pain But you’re gone forever, nothing remains! (Whoa-oh, ashes of our waltz!) I still hear your laugh in the silence between Every chord I play cuts deeper than it seems The ring on the table, cold as the grave The promises we made we could never save I reach for your shadow, but it slips through my hands Love turned to ruin in these broken lands We were love in the fire, burning so bright! (so bright!) Now ashes of our waltz drift into the night! (into the night!) I scream your name through the smoke and the pain But you’re gone forever, nothing remains! (Whoa-oh, nothing remains!) We were love in the fire, now only smoke! Ashes of our waltz, forever broke! I scream your name till my voice is dust Our story ended in broken trust! (Whoa-oh, ashes… ashes…)
