Dance, they said
Life is only for the moment
The light is brief
Don't waste it
The taste is sweet so taste it
So I said I understand
I'm dancing as fast as I can

Maybe were just shooting stars
Needing something to hold on to
But each thing we touch seems to vanish
Like candles and friends
They burn at both ends

Dance, they said
Life is only for the moment
The light is brief
Don't waste it
The taste is sweet so taste it
So I said I understand
I'm dancing as fast as I can

He said Ill see you around
And as I brushed my hair
I winked and said, you might
'Cause I know by now how it's done
After all the mornings after
And all the nights
Dance, they said
Life is only for the moment
The light is brief
Don't waste it
The taste is sweet so taste it
So I said I understand
I'm dancing as fast as I can
