Heavy clouds, no rain
And every move causes pain
Ready kiss, but no love 
I feel I'm torn in half
Burning look, but no heat
It's not you really need
Baby now it's happened with us
We are dancing on broken glass
Can't stand no more 

Never, never let you go 
You are the one I'm searching for
Flesh of my flesh, 
Bone of my bone 
Love's carving it in the stone
Never, never let you go
Return the days we had before
Soul of my soul, blood of my blood 
Love's carving it in my heart

Gentle words, no aim 
It seems we're playing a game
Easy smile, but no fun
Sweet music for no one
Close embrace, but no more 
Cold champagne we forgot to pour
Baby now it's happened with us 
We're dancing on broken glass
Can't stand no more
