The Final Dance

Won’t you come and dance with me”?

Said the angel to the ghost

The DJ’s playing Abba,

They’re the ones I like the most


We’ll waltz and spin each other round

Or shake the rhumba beat

And you can hold me close to you,  

We’ll float on gilded feet


I’m sorry I can’t dance with you,

I have to dance alone

And shuffle in this haunted space

The place I call my home

I have to dance alone


Well come and take a walk with me

In fields of golden bloom

For I can lead you from the dark

And from your house of gloom


I’m sorry I can’t walk with you

I tried it once before

My feet just want to take me back

Behind this bolted door

I have to walk alone


Well let me sit and hold your hand

And comfort you a while

One day you’ll find forgiveness,

And blessed will be their smile


I will sit and hold your hand

And let the silence talk

And when I’m feeling strong enough

Perhaps we’ll take that walk


And maybe when we’ve walked a while

There might just be a chance

We’ll play your favourite Abba song

And share the final dance

  

We’ll share the final dance

We’ll share the final dance
