[01:50.30]The smile of dawn arrived early May
[01:54.69]She carried a gift from her home
[01:59.24]The night shed a tear to tell her of fear
[02:03.38]And of sorrow and pain
[02:05.95]She'll never outgrow
[02:08.64]Death is the first dance, eternal
[02:13.97]There's no more freedom
[02:18.62]The both of you will be confined
[02:24.95]Into this mind
[02:37.20]I was told there's a miracle
[02:41.40]For each day that I try
[02:44.29]I was told there's a new love that's born
[02:47.95]For each one that has died
[02:50.78]I was told there'll be no one to call on
[02:54.43]When I feel alone and afraid
[02:57.30]I was told if you dream of the next world
[03:01.09]You'll find yourself swimming in a lake of fire
[03:08.93]As a child, I thought I could live without pain
[03:13.63]Without sorrow
[03:17.63]As a man, I've found it's all caught up with me
[03:22.93]I'm asleep, yet I'm so afraid
[03:35.42]Somewhere like a scene from a memory (A scene from a memory)
[03:40.79]There's a picture of a thousand words (A thousand words)
[03:44.73]Eluding stares, the face that's before me (Face that's before me)
[03:50.00]It hides away and will never be heard of again
[03:54.58]Deceit is the second without end
[03:59.04]The city's cold blood teaches us to survive
[04:03.81]Just keep my heart in your eyes and we'll stay alive
[04:11.64]The third arrives
[08:16.68]Before the leaves have fallen
[08:22.70]Before we lock the doors
[08:29.08]There must be the third and last dance
[08:33.34]This one will last forever
[08:36.98]Metropolis watches and thoughtfully smiles
[08:41.22]She's taken you to your home
[08:45.47]It can only take place
[08:48.21]When the struggle between our children has ended
[08:54.08]Now The Miracle and The Sleeper know
[09:00.09]That the third is love
[09:04.65]Love is the dance of eternity
