Dance
of Love
When all you have it's been taken away,
And you stand naked in the light;
When your life it's been reduced
To a short promenade,
Like the moth taken to dancin' with
The midnight flame;
What will you say when they play your epic
On that golden screen?
"Take it away! Turn it off!
Let me go back again!"
And how will you feel 'bout that movie
Your life has made?
Will you be proud? will you be ashamed?
Will you be afraid?
Or, will you be dancin'? will you be dancin'?
will you be dancin' the dance of love?
What will you say when they ask,
"What did you live for?
And what was the road you chose to walk on?"
And when they ask about your treasure
You kept inside your heart?
Will you say, "I lived to smell love's sweet perfume,
and i walked the road she bid my heart to follow,
My treasure was the love i gave away,
For place a lid on love and she's gone,
Yes, place a lid on love and she's gone."
So When all you have it's been taken away,
And you stand naked in the light;
When your life it's been reduced
To a short promenade,
Like the moth taken to dancin' with
The midnight flame
will you be dancin'? will you be dancin'?
willyou be dancin' the dance of love?
