The Crystal Ballroom

Life begins with the first glance The first kiss and the first dance All of us are wondering why we're here In the crystal ballroom underneath the chandelier Wet the glass till the glasses sing We punish our hearts till the heart bells ring 'Cause where we come from, we’re not always kind The human story's what love leaves behind We’re the ghosts of love And we haunt this place We’re the ghosts of love In every face In the ballroom of the crystalline Everyone’s here with me tonight Everyone but you Our first chance is their last dance Our life is shaped by another's hands Buttoning, unbuttoning a Coco dress Stopping and not stopping every cold caress Born for bliss, born for this Every human life begins with a kiss A kiss by every kind of possibility And everyone is here tonight with me We're the ghosts of love And we haunt this place We're the ghosts of love In every face In the ballroom of the crystalline Everyone's here with me tonight Everyone but you Everybody’s here with me tonight Everybody’s here with me but you Everybody’s here with me tonight Everybody’s here with me but you Everybody’s here with me tonight Everybody’s here with me but you Everybody’s here with me tonight Everybody’s here with me but you Born for bliss, born for this Every human life begins with a kiss
