Dance Here Slowly

English translation

We'd been out on the floor for ten minutes that's all

And I looked in your eyes and they spoke

They said, "Boy, you can't dance, but you've walked through my head"

And you stopped and made friends with my hopes

And the days I feel weak and the other's can't sleep

You said, "I'll love you carefully"

So will you love me carefully?

Hour left now and I'm holding your hips

You said, "I've not been held like this"

I've called many things "love", and so many things "grief"

They've all just been versions of uncertainty

If you see past my frown and you choose not to leave

Will there be some condition to who I should be

To be loved by you?

I wanna be loved by you

Sudden cracks in the floor, but we're keeping the pace now

'Cause, darling, I

Feel this terror when we start to slip and I stare down

If it only lasts a minute, I'll make certain that you're in it

Keep the tempo now, keep the tempo now

As the roof starts to cave

Keep the tempo now, keep the tempo now

As the world starts to break

Darling, we'll dance

Darling, we'll dance here slow

Darling, we'll dance

Darling, we'll dance here slowly

A second left now and I'm kissing your lips

'Cause I won't let go of this
