He came in silver shoes
Across the lacquered floor
A ribbon hid his mouth
But I still wanted more
His hands were white as chalk
On the edge of my glove
He bowed like old perfume
Then vanished with the love
The chandeliers leaned low
As if they knew his name
I held my breath to hear
But nothing came
The masked prince never speaks
Never speaks to me
He leaves a rose and turns
Like he’s set free
The masked prince never speaks
Never speaks, I know
But in his quiet eyes
My heart says go
He danced me through the waltz
One circle, then a sigh
His shadow on the wall
Was taller than July
I asked him, soft and slow
“Will you stay till dawn?”
He only brushed my cheek
And the next note was gone
The band kept time for ghosts
The room began to glow
I nearly heard his voice
Then let it go
The masked prince never speaks
Never speaks to me
He leaves a rose and turns
Like he’s set free
The masked prince never speaks
Never speaks, I know
But in his quiet eyes
My heart says go
Maybe he’s grief in silk
Maybe he’s a lie
Maybe the moon made him
Out of my reply
Still, when the last song ends
And the glasses dim
I keep one empty waltz
For me and him
The masked prince never speaks
Never speaks to me
He leaves a rose and turns
Like he’s set free
The masked prince never speaks
Never speaks, I know
But in his quiet eyes
My heart says go
The masked prince never speaks
Never speaks tonight
And still I wear his name
Like pale moonlight
