It's the chance we've all been waiting for
time for the midnight waltz
a time to dance the night away
find a heart and a beautiful smile
amidst all the deceptions
of the normal masquerade.
We'll dance like no-one is watching
and sing like life is worth living
and we'll step-two-three,
together.
And as I watch
Beasts and birds, harlequin girls
triple-step their way across the stage,
they set up an invisible spotlight
shinning on you and I
and I find myself seeing
through my true eyes
pulling off the string that holds on
my beautiful painted alibi.
I'm constantly reminded what beautiful is
as you remove your mask
and I look into your eyes
and start this magic waltz.
