Slow dance alone
In the middle of my room
Holding on to nothing
But the thought of you
The music plays quietly
From an old speaker light
I let the curtains fall
And disappear from the night
There’s no one here to hold me
No hand around my waist
Just a memory moving
In an empty space
I close my eyes slowly
Pretend you’re still near
Like your voice is the rhythm
Only I can hear
The floor knows my footsteps
The walls know your name
I keep turning in circles
But nothing feels the same
Maybe I should stop this song
Maybe I should let you fade
But my heart keeps choosing
The place where you stayed
Slow dance alone
With the ghost of us
In a room full of silence
And a heart full of dust
Slow dance alone
To a song we never finished
Every step I take
Makes me miss you for a minute
Slow dance alone
Under fading light
I’m letting go gently
One turn at a time
Your shirt is not here now
Your perfume is gone
But the air still remembers
How we used to belong
I laugh at myself softly
For reaching out my hand
Like the past might return
And ask me to dance
The ceiling looks lonely
The moon looks kind
I keep finding old feelings
I thought I left behind
Maybe love is a shadow
That learns how to stay
Even after the morning
Carries someone away
Maybe I should stop this song
Maybe I should let you fade
But my heart keeps choosing
The place where you stayed
Slow dance alone
With the ghost of us
In a room full of silence
And a heart full of dust
Slow dance alone
To a song we never finished
Every step I take
Makes me miss you for a minute
Slow dance alone
Under fading light
I’m letting go gently
One turn at a time
I don’t need you back
To know that it was real
I don’t need forever
To honor what I feel
Some love leaves softly
Some love leaves scars
Some love becomes music
Under lonely stars
Slow dance alone
With the ghost of us
In a room full of silence
And a heart full of dust
Slow dance alone
To a song we never finished
Every step I take
Makes me miss you for a minute
Slow dance alone
Under fading light
I’m letting go gently
One turn at a time
Slow dance alone
In the middle of my room
Holding on to nothing
But the thought of you
