dance
O.F.C. Lyrics

It's a fine night to be forgetting
Tonight is a perfect occasion to forget the past

As the moon shines so magically through this hall of elegance
The moon's reflection on this beautiful building creates a charming atmosphere

You're a fine sight; one I know too well
You look stunning, but sadly, I've seen you before and know how this ends

As the memories I locked away fly back into relevance
Memories that I tried to hide are coming back and impacting me again

And we stuck straight to the plan
We followed our plan and left each other for new lovers

To save ourselves, we had to run away and take new lovers in our hands
To protect ourselves, we had to leave each other and find new love

But do I have the strength to live to see The next day?
I wonder if I can handle this situation and face the consequences

I've seen you wear that dress before
I remember you wearing that dress in the past

With the colors of the waves along the shore
The dress reminded me of the colors of the ocean's waves

And I've seen your lips behave that way, teamed up with your eyes
I noticed the way your lips moved when you talked, and they matched your eyes

I wonder if it's just for show anymore
I question if your actions are genuine or just a performance

Young lovers dance their foolish dance, I try to finish my drink
I watch the young couples dance and try to occupy myself by drinking

As he does with you the moves I can only wish to achieve
I'm envious of the way he dances with you and wish I could do the same

She holds my hand and kisses me
My new lover holds my hand and kisses me

You see us once and fill with hidden rage
Seeing us together makes you angry, and you try to hide it

So jealous of her never-ending grace that you forgot that's just what drew me to you when you were in her place
You forgot that your grace is what attracted me to you when you were in her spot and now you're jealous of her.

I used to see Coney Island at night when I looked into your eyes
I used to get lost in your eyes, and it reminded me of the night view of Coney Island

Why do blessings land so far from where I stand?
I wonder why good things come to me when they are so unreachable

And we never reached the final frontier of our pastime paradise
We never achieved our shared dream of happiness

Though I've memorized the freckles on your hand
I know every detail of your being, and it's ingrained in my memory

I can try to forget all of our aspirations, but not forget our life
I can attempt to move on from the dream we shared, but I will never forget the life we had together

Can you show me how to survive?
I need you to teach me how to keep going in this challenging time

Before the last dance comes up in five
We have one last chance to dance together before the night ends

The gods of love will still be talking jive
Love will always influence us, even when we're dancing our last dance

And so, we'll dance
We will take this last chance to dance together, even though it won't change anything
