Intro:
He was everything I wasn't. Laughing when I cried.
So I drove off, these photographs floating down Route 66
He knew my secrets, so I had to run.
I ran 'til all the streetlights went out.
Chorus:
I remember the endless nights, where we'd dance forever.
He looked into my eyes, I saw myself in his.
His smile lied, as my lips whispered goodbye.
He wasn't the one I thought I'd ever fall for.
He made me believe in everything that he wasn't
He was never there, the ghost of my dreams.
He wasn't real, He wasn't there, he wasn't...
Pre/Chorus:
You played the best role in this story.
You turned a nightmare into a dream such as this.
My Salvatore, my saving grace, the greatest love of mine
As we danced, I waltzed alone upon shattered glass,
In the place we first met, I dance alone.
Chorus:
I remember the endless nights, where we'd dance forever.
He looked into my eyes, I saw myself in his.
His smile lied, as my lips whispered goodbye.
He wasn't the one I thought I'd ever fall for.
He made me believe in everything that he wasn't
He was never there, the ghost of my dreams.
He wasn't real, He wasn't there, he wasn't...
Outro:
We would dance forever
But now forever doesn't seem as long...
Won't you dance with me forever?
Forever....
