The Crystal Ballroom

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
Life begins with the first glanceThe first kiss at the first danceAll of us are wondering why we're hereIn the crystal ballroom underneath the chandelierWet the glass till the glasses singWe punish our hearts till the heart bells ringCos where we come from we're not always kindThe human story is what love leaves behindWe're the ghosts of love and we haunt this placeWe're the ghosts of love in every faceIn the ballroom of the crystal lightsEveryone's here with me tonightEveryone but youOur first chance, is their last danceOur life is shaped by another's handsButtoning unbuttoning her Coco dressStopping and unstopping every cold caressBorn for bliss, born for thisEvery human life begins with a kissKissed by every kind of possibilityAnd everyone is here tonight with meWe?re the ghosts of love and we haunt this placeWe're the ghosts of love in every faceIn the ballroom of the crystal lightsEveryone's here with me tonightEveryone but youEveryone but you
