歌詞

I pin my smile at the seam

Between the stage and the dream

Your hands are velvet and trouble

Tracing my name in the dark

I know the rules of the room

Still I step out to you

Heels on the boards like a heartbeat

Skirt hem brushing the spark

Hush now

The crowd leans in

One more turn

And I begin

Behind the curtain

I come alive

Behind the curtain

You watch me glide

Take my hand

Let the night unwind

Behind the curtain

I'm all your shine

A ring of smoke and perfume

Spins with the moon in the glass

You call me darling and darling

I let the moment ask

Your laugh is sharp as a needle

My grin is a crooked line

We dance like we're keeping a secret

Tight as a red silk tie

Hush now

The lights swing low

One more step

And I let go

Behind the curtain

I come alive

Behind the curtain

You watch me glide

Take my hand

Let the night unwind

Behind the curtain

I'm all your shine

If the morning comes knocking

Let it wait at the door

I was born for the footlights

But I want a little more

Behind the curtain

I come alive

Behind the curtain

You watch me glide

Take my hand

Let the night unwind

Behind the curtain

I'm all your shine

Shh, don't tell them where I go

When the velvet folds are closed

Behind the curtain

I still hold your glow
