They're cleaning up the confetti
It's an empty room
Plastic cups in the corner

Many times you have carried me
Higher up than I could reach
But this time you're on my shoulders

And while there's something to talk about
And while there's something to say
I promise you
I won't be gone
On the day that the dance is over
I will be your song
Keep holding on
On the day that the dance is over
I will be your song

You can put away your costume
You can be yourself
There is nothing to be scared of

They can turn all the lights out
Leave us standing in the dark
But I'm not going anywhere, love

And while there's something to talk about
And while there's something to say
I promise you
I won't be gone
On the day that the dance is over
I will be your song
Keep holding on
On the day that the dance is over
I will be your song

I know the party is over
I know that all good things must end
But I believe there is music in the silence

And while there's something to talk about
And while there's something to say
I promise you
That I won't be gone
On the day that the dance is over
I will be your song
Keep holding on
On the day that the dance is over
I will be your song
