Redvers and Mélissa - One More Waltz

The fat lady sings
And the boxing ring bell rings
These days we just email
She’ll pick up her things
And the moon is climbing high
In the black twinkling sky
My head turns cartwheels
A shooting star flies
Did she run in slow-mo
Into a new embrace?
As I feel as though I lost
The human race
It's not the ending I expected at all
Dans la vie la fin est le commencement
In a circle we dance
We waltz our final waltz
She told me I deserve
So much better than her
That I should be with grace
‘Cause she laughs & creates
And she said
I want babies and you never meditate
I said I want that too
But it seemed to be too late
And she said
You got no money since you moved to Aldgate
But my waters tell the truth
From excuses people make
There were facts she seemed to ignore
We'd be friends if she gave it to me straight
Said there's someone i love more
And this is our final waltz
And thank god she did
Or where would we be?
Maybe somewhere better
It’s impossible to see
Maybe somewhere worse
It’s all turned out great
Just not as I rehearsed
Almost time to shoot
But you just kicked off your shoes
You said
I don't want to dance in heels
I know how it feels
To be safe in your arms
And feel your heart by my heart
Hear that voice enchant me
And i said
I'm so lucky that life lead me here
Danced a clumsy pirouette
I shed a tear
You don't need to explain tears of joy
As the ocean bears gifts of love
And one more waltz
