Move a bit closer, just let it take over
And if this is our final chance

If this is our last, last dance
If we know that this is the last time we will dance together
Move a bit closer, just let it take over
Let's move closer to each other and let the music take control of us
And if this is our final chance
If we know that this is our last opportunity
Let's make it worth it and dance until we stop the world
Let's make this moment count and dance until everything around us fades away
