Lyrics
[Intro]
Mm
Mm-mm
[Verse 1]
Woke before the morning light
Found your letter by the door
Every word a paper scar
Written in a language I can't hold
Now the room feels twice as empty
Like a stage without its show
[Pre-Chorus]
And I keep turning every page
Looking for the line you erased
[Chorus]
Don't leave me dancing on my own
In this quiet afterglow
The sitar hums a lonely tone
Only where we used to go
Baby hold me close tonight
Before the darkness steals the show
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
[Verse 2]
Vivid echoes on the wall
Rambling through the courtyard air
Every thread you ever wove
Tangled in the songs we shared
And the temple bells keep calling
Softly ringing out my despair
[Pre-Chorus]
But I keep chasing every trace
Searching for your gentle face
[Chorus]
Don't leave me dancing on my own
In this quiet afterglow
The sitar hums a lonely tone
Only where we used to go
Baby hold me close tonight
Before the darkness steals the show
[Bridge]
Take my hand across the years
Walk with me through winding lanes
Where the moonlight paints in silver
And we'll dance away the pain
Carry me through golden hours
Till we're standing whole again
[Chorus]
Don't leave me dancing on my own
In this quiet afterglow
The sitar hums a lonely tone
Only where we used to go
Baby hold me close tonight
Before the darkness steals the show
[Outro]
Mm
Mm-mm
