Verse 2 Lyrics:
In the glow of twilight, our world is finally calm.
I felt it complete me, when the stars give way to dawn.
A language universal, but I speak not it's tongue.
Is this a night that SPANS forever, or a dawn that never comes.
Interlude Lyrics:
Tomorrow we might wake in servitude and sadness.
I will give you everything if only you would have me!
Tomorrow we will sweat and toil,
Our hands will quiver caked with soil,
Tomorrow we'll give it one last chance,
But tonight we dance,
But tonight we dance!
