Brave Combo – The Dance Lesson lyrics

Album: Sounds of the Hollow

It was night, a night like this
A night for passion
A boy, a girl, the dance
Without the moon, without a star
Blind in the blackness
And what they call fate
We'll call circumstance
And in her eyes he saw himself a tiger
While in his arms ahe turned into a swan
And so they tangoed
And they twirled ad infinitum
Step, by step became a marathon
And so they danced

It was a love, a love supreme
So full of passion
Like springtime everyday
They drank the wine
They shared the dreams
They made such music
But what they called love
We'll call lingerie
And if at times both cupid took a breather
Romance is a migratory end
She couldn't tell his charming life was still on crutches
How could he know her heart was beating with a limp
And so they danced

Blame it on the moon
Or blame it on the mystery
Or blame it on the mom and dad
Who looked your sordid history
Or blame it on a fantasy
Where a pretty face or a melody you can't erase
There's always reasons we can lose
Or dusting off our old dancing shoes

It was a shame, a shame indeed
A shame that passion
A flower just fades and dies
The music stopped, they pulled apart
And both fell over
But what they called sand?
We'll call otherwise
For when he said "I need you to complete me"
She answered him "I have no meaning on my own "
And they finally realized
That even Fred and Ginger
Once had to start by learning how to walk alone
Before they danced (4x)
