lyrics

d a n c e w e k n o w

maybe this dance we know is nothing but a dream
another chance to look inside beyond the way it seems
maybe we’re a common thread dangling from the sky
maybe there's much more unsaid wordless in a sigh

maybe the moon and mars are turning in the night
surrounded by falling stars echoing insight
maybe we’re a silent prayer filling up the dark
maybe there’s much more in there
arcing in a spark

on the tip of the universe these bodies come to learn
until we step outside the form and watch these bodies burn
you can never walk away, the choice becomes you
no matter who you think you are
it’s in everything you do

just because the heart turns doesn’t mean it has to go
like staring at a photograph of what we’ll never know
somedays there’s a refugee lost inside the night
somedays there’s a part of me
that watches with delight

maybe the moon and mars...
maybe the moon and mars...
turning in the night
