Once the Dance Is Done

I am not sorry baby
don't you ever think that
there isn't anything I would change
nothing I would take back
when my dreams come
they are still of sand and sea
the footsteps we left
on a smooth, moonlit beach

don’t you worry 'bout me baby
I'll get by somehow
but the music isn't the same
once the dance is done

the clouds move by
the breeze blows the same
the sun still shines
the moon rises high
I still think of you
and tiles from a game
sometimes wondering if
you ever think of me

don’t you worry 'bout me baby
I'll get by somehow
but the music isn't the same
once the dance is done
