Ballroom of my mind
Gorgeous patterns, this ballroom got
White, gold and rusty brown as my eyes can call
I'm slow dancing with the one I love
You dance gracefully, my little dove :)
I look at your face, you're fading away...
Crazy how this dream can turn into a nightmare
I slowly drop down, so my tears
A broken heart, this one fears
If I was a ballerina, I wouldn't seek a pair
But all I dance is tango, and you're not here
As sad as my eyes are, I rather go blind
feels so lonely here, in the ballroom of my mind
