歌詞

I found your note in ash

At the edge of the hall

Fallen like a ribbon

Against the winter wall

My satin shoes were waiting

By the candle’s sleepy glow

I wore them for the waltz

We never got to know

And the room held its breath

Like it knew your name

I turned once in the mirror

Then the embers fell like rain

Satin shoes in the ash

Still shining, still mine

Satin shoes in the ash

We danced one last time

Hold me close, then let me go

Soft as the snowfall

Satin shoes in the ash

I hear your footfall

Your glass left a circle

On the piano’s edge

A little ring of moonlight

A promise at the hedge

The violins were humming

From a dream behind the door

I let the silence lead me

Like it had before

And the room held your scent

In the velvet air

I lifted up my chin

Like you might still be there

Satin shoes in the ash

Still shining, still mine

Satin shoes in the ash

We danced one last time

Hold me close, then let me go

Soft as the snowfall

Satin shoes in the ash

I hear your footfall

Maybe love was always

A fire in a glove

Bright enough to warm us

Then too small to save the love

So I keep the spark

In the heel, in the seam

One graceful little heartbreak

One unbroken dream

Satin shoes in the ash

Still shining, still mine

Satin shoes in the ash

We danced one last time

Hold me close, then let me go

Soft as the snowfall

Satin shoes in the ash

I hear your footfall

Satin shoes in the ash

I hear your footfall
