Pirouettes

Let me call it what it is

I'm losing grip of my mind

Like a river changing course

All my wells are slowly running dry

Rain keeps falling in reverse

A black sun is shining through

And as the rainbow bleeds away

I'm down here calling on you

Mm, I'm down here calling on you

Dancing in the dark out in the silence

Our silhouettes are turning pirouettes

I see you looking at me in the twilight

But will you hold me when the sky is turning red?

Let me tell it like it is

We might not last the night

But will you let me hold you now?

We can watch the fire burn until it dies

We keep spinning, round and round

Lover, I'm seeing stars

Oh, as the music fades away

I'm down here calling on you

Dancing in the dark out in the silence

Our silhouettes are turning pirouettes

I see you looking at me in the twilight

But will you hold me when the sky is turning red?

There's a lullaby that keeps on playing

A thousand voices singing in my head

I see you looking at me in the starlight

But will you hold me when the sky is turning red?

Turning, twisting

No need to put me down

On the tips of our toes

We never touch the ground

Dancing in the dark out in the silence

Our silhouettes are turning pirouettes

I see you looking at me in the twilight

But will you hold me when the sky is turning red?

There's a lullaby that keeps on playing

A thousand voices singing in my head

I see you looking at me in the starlight

But will you hold me when the sky is turning red?
