"that old waltz" lyrics

"that old waltz"

So long has passed
Since we crossed paths
Since I laid eyes
On what would be my life

All hands on deck
Never looked back
Breaking from our sinking hopes

Can't say I did not fear
Though she never flinched
Taking over those strange words
As if they were her own

As years went by
We strengthened our ties
While trying to find
Our place in their sun

It grew on us
Good seed from overseas
Thriving on a different light

Sure we had our quarrels
Sure we disagree
Keeping our guard down
Close as we could be, yeah

In a blink our
Life passed so fast
We frowned, we laughed
Split between the two worlds

This waltz we hear
Brings back so vividly
The swaying of that steaming boat

Shall we dance like we did then?
As we prepare to see the end
Smiling back at what we've been
Meeting souls up in the wind

Shall we dance like we did then?
As we prepare to see the end
Smiling back at what we've been
Meeting souls up in the wind

Music keeps playing
Finding its way
Music keeps playing
Finding its way

Music keeps playing
Finding its way
Music keeps playing
Finding its way

Music keeps playing
Finding its way
