Tripping on the Minefields at Midnight

+ Show full styles

[Intro] [solo female baritone vocals, breathy delivery] Endless broken pieces Missing parts of you and me We're always dancing around The minefields in our soul [Verse 1] Sign your name now you're in full possession of a heart But we do our best not to fall apart But does it have a hundred year warranty? [Verse 2] Fall asleep praying and praying for our souls to keep The sound of your snoring I would never leave Or kick you out of bed like you do to me Over how loud I breathe [spoken] "That snoring!" [Chorus] [finger snaps enter on beats 2 and 4] Dancing in the minefield at midnight Foxtrot lightly on your triggers in the moonlight Night and day Flowers wash away the pain Tears in the rain Until I'm talking in, my sleep again [Bridge] Is your heart of stone or is it made of gold? Is either one compatible With a Kevlar soul? [Chorus] Dancing in the minefield at midnight Foxtrot lightly on your trigger in the moonlight Night and day Night and day [Verse 3] [vocals become more powerful and resonant] You're a luxury sometimes too cold to touch You dazzle me a diamond in the rough You tempt and tantalize it could never be too much But if I were you I would never leave it so unsaid [Chorus] Dancing in the minefield at midnight Foxtrot lightly on your trigger in the moonlight Night and day [Outro] But you just say those words, baby I am instantly yours But I'm always wondering, sometimes, if you're ever coming home [finger snaps continue] Dancing in the minefield at midnight Foxtrot lightly on your trigger in the moonlight Night and day Night and day
