Lyric

The chandeliers dim low

On satin and glass

Your hand at my back

Like a held-breath past

One final turn for us

One final polite lie

The moon on your cufflink

The tear in my eye

And the band slows down

To a tender sway

Your smile says stay

My dress says may

The room goes soft

Around your name

I learn to lose

With perfect grace

Last spin in the blue ballroom

Hold me while the room turns slow

Last spin in the blue ballroom

Kiss me like you already know

Blue ballroom, blue ballroom

Let the final waltz begin

Blue ballroom, blue ballroom

I can leave you in the spin

Your laughter touches mine

Then drifts away

Like a silver spoon

In a cup of gray

I know that look

The practiced kind

A door left open

A goodbye refined

The harp keeps count

Of every sigh

The strings lean close

And then goodbye

And the band slows down

To a tender sway

Your smile says stay

My dress says may

The room goes soft

Around your name

I learn to lose

With perfect grace

Last spin in the blue ballroom

Hold me while the room turns slow

Last spin in the blue ballroom

Kiss me like you already know

Blue ballroom, blue ballroom

Let the final waltz begin

Blue ballroom, blue ballroom

I can leave you in the spin

Leave the door unlatched

Let the night come through

I wore my brave face

Just to dance with you

If I fade from sight

In the candle haze

Promise me this

We were beautiful, anyway

Last spin in the blue ballroom

Hold me while the room turns slow

Last spin in the blue ballroom

Kiss me like you already know

Blue ballroom, blue ballroom

Let the final waltz begin

Blue ballroom, blue ballroom

I can leave you in the spin

One last spin

Then I’m gone

Under the blue

We carry on
