i'm dancing as fast as i can

dance

they said

life is only for the moment

the light is brief

don't waste it

the taste is sweet so taste it

so i said i understand

i'm dancing as fast as i can

maybe were just shooting stars

needing something to hold on to

but each thing we touch seems to vanish

like candles and friends

they burn at both ends

dance

they said

life is only for the moment

the light is brief

don't waste it

the taste is sweet so taste it

so i said i understand

i'm dancing as fast as i can

he said i'll see you around

and as i brushed my hair

i winked and said

you might

'cause i know by now how it's done

after all the mornings after

and all the nights

dance

they said

life is only for the moment

the light is brief

don't waste it

the taste is sweet so taste it

so i said i understand

i'm dancing as fast as i can
