[Verse 1]

Who's gonna stop us from waltzing back into rekindled flames

If we know the steps anyway?

We embroidered the memories of the time I was away

Stitching, "We were just kids, babe"

I said, "I don't mind, it takes time"

I thought I was better safe than starry-eyed

I felt aglow like this

Never before and never since

[Chorus]

If you know it in one glimpse, it's legendary

You and I go from one kiss to getting married

Still alivе, killing time at the cemеtery

Never quite buried

In your suit and tie, in the nick of time

You low-down boy, you stand-up guy

You Holy Ghost, you told me I'm the love of your life

You said I'm the love of your life

About a million times

[Verse 2]

Who's gonna tell me the truth when you blew in with the winds of fate

And told me I reformed you?

When your impressionist paintings of heaven turned out to be fakes

Well, you took me to hell too

And all at once, the ink bleeds

A con man sells a fool a get-love-quick scheme

But I've felt a hole like this

Never before and ever since

[Chorus]

If you know it in one glimpse, it's legendary

What we thought was for all time was momentary

Still alive, killing time at the cemetery

Never quite buried

You cinephile in black and white

All those plot twists and dynamite

Mr. Steal Your Girl, then make her cry

You said I'm the love of your life

[Bridge]

You talked me under the table

Talkin' rings and talkin' cradles

I wish I could un-recall

How we almost had it all

Dancing phantoms on the terrace

Are they second-hand embarrassed

That I can't get out of bed

'Cause something counterfeit's dead?

It was legendary

It was momentary

It was unnecessary

Should've let it stay buried

[Chorus]

Oh, what a valiant roar

What a bland goodbye

The coward claimed he was a lion

I'm combing through the braids of lies

"I'll never leave," "Never mind"

Our field of dreams engulfed in fire

Your arson's match, your somber eyes

And I'll still see it until I die

You're the loss of my life
