"Slow Dance" lyrics

"Slow Dance"

I know there's no further conversation
I know the plane has left the runway
Yeah, the line's been cut
And my chance to tell you is up
We put each other's words in boxes
And then we stored them all away
But I'm happy we had a house
Guess life took us different routes

Somebody leaves, somebody stays
Mmm-oh, but neither ever stays the same

At long last, we ended the slow dance
Guess it took you with me for us to see
The joy, pains made us more human
And we just needed room
To see both sides of the truth

I know it'd be easier to place blame
Find friends that are thinkin' the same thing
But that's not all there was
I remember us

Somebody leaves, somebody stays
Mmm-oh, but neither ever stays the same
At long last, we ended the slow dance
Guess it took you with me for us to see
The joy, pains made us more human
And we just needed room
To see both sides of the truth

Love and hate
Pain and bliss
Guilty while you're innocent
Bittersweet
Sweet and bitter
You and I were glued together
You and me
Me and you
Story only we knew
Had to die to come alive
To see both sides of the truth

Love and hate
Pain and bliss
Guilty while you're innocent
Bittersweet
Sweet and bitter
You and I were glued together
You and me
Me and you
Story only we knew
Had to die to come alive
To see both sides of the truth

At long last, we ended the slow dance
Guess it took you with me for us to see
The joy, pains made us more human
And we just needed room
To see both sides of the truth
