[Verse 1] Under the chapel stone I hear you call my name Your shadow on my coat Like sugar in the rain Mon cœur, it starts to shake When you step close to me Your fingers on the glass Cold as a rosary I count your quiet breaths One, two, then three La nuit leans in And pulls me to my knees [Pre-Chorus] Oh, doucement You turn the air to fire Oh, doucement You lift me higher [Chorus] Dance macabre Dance with me Dance macabre Set me free One slow turn One last vow Dance macabre Here and now [Verse 2] The candle bends its neck The mirror learns your face A black lace on the bed A saint in faded grace Je suis perdu When you smile at me The violin begins To scratch inside my chest You touch my open hand Like you know what comes next La fin, my love Is dressed up beautifully [Pre-Chorus] Oh, doucement You turn the air to fire Oh, doucement You lift me higher [Chorus] Dance macabre Dance with me Dance macabre Set me free One slow turn One last vow Dance macabre Here and now [Bridge] If I fall, hold me near If I fade, stay here Let the dark come close Let it draw the line I taste your final kiss Like winter on my tongue And the room goes still As the old bells start [Chorus] Dance macabre Dance with me Dance macabre Set me free One slow turn One last vow Dance macabre Here and now [Outro] Mon amour Don’t let go Danse macabre Take me slow
