[Verse] The trumpets cry The drums keep time The moon's a pearl The stars won't shine The world spins slow Like a final rhyme [Prechorus] But hold me close Let’s steal the night One last swing beneath the light [Chorus] It's the last dance of the world My dear The end is near But let’s not fear Spin me ‘round Till the dawn appears The last dance The last cheer [Verse 2] The saxophones weep The clarinet sighs The sky’s ablaze with goodbye skies But your hand in mine It never lies [Prechorus] Forget the clock Let’s lose the race One last dip in this sacred space [Chorus] It's the last dance of the world My dear The end is near But let’s not fear Spin me ‘round Till the dawn appears The last dance The last cheer
