Desperate Characters repost

start music now

Desperate Characters

Desperate characters

we dance in the dark

trying to capture

that magic, that spark

Wining and dining

and yearning to feel

the way that we did once

when true love was real

Desperate characters

we probe with our eyes

and try to detect there

the truth and the lies

Hoping for something

that can't be replaced

by strangers and others

that time has erased

Desperate characters

we give it a whirl

out there on the floor

the ballroom of the world

Of loving and losing

and losing some more

two ships without anchors

that have crashed on the shore

Still looking for magic

and longing for home

cause a house is just shelter

when you live alone

Desperate characters

trying so to be brave

holding onto a moment

that the heart cannot save

Then the music, it stops now

and the bright lights come on

in the dark, I was hopeful

but I'm leaving alone.
