Lyrics

[Verse 1]
This place a palace of light drawn with shade
Of silence and pretense a token of our trade
And here you and I like wreathed in flames
All over a life lived by makin' up new games
Of gazes and whispers
[Verse 2]
I want you to know I still love you
Even though we've been dancing on broken glass
Parade all your memories, for the moments we shared
Never fade away
[Verse 3]
I want you to know I still love you
When I walk down the memory lane
When the night swears its love to the stars
There will be no more tears today, hey hey
[Verse 4]
We shared a penchant for cyanide praise
Fashioned our amours of empathy's malaise
And all of that hurt and all fo those words that we said
You'd think we poisoned the ground on which we tread
But the linin' is silver
[Verse 5]
I want you to know I still love you
Even though we've been dancing on broken glass
Parade all your memories, for the moments we shared
Never fade away
[Verse 6]
I want you to know I still love you
When I walk down the memory lane
When the night swears its love to the stars
There will be no more tears today, hey, hey
[Verse 7]
The best of intentions will not see the road paved
The end of illusions who could ever be saved
What's left behind in the storms that we braved
The troubles we find and the chances we waived
[Verse 8]
We're goin' where dreams really come true
And we won't be held back by our fears
Come hell or high water
We'll trust there's a life for us there this way
[Verse 9]
I want you to know I still love you
Even though we've been dancing on broken glass
Parade all your memories, for the moments we shared
Never fade away
[Verse 10]
I want you to know I still love you
When I walk down the memory lane
Where the night swears its love to the stars
There will be no more tears today, hey, hey
Hey, hey
