I could go back in time
And bottle the tears you brought me
And bring them back to you now in a vial
But I don't want to
It might make you cry too
And I never want to lose that smile.

I could fall asleep
Within your shadow
When it's the only darkness in the room
But I really wouldn't
Want to do that either
Because what would shield you?

Where I really should be
Is in your arms on the dance floor
Where we're equals
As we've never been before

What we really should do
Is overlook the past and start anew.
We always wondered if we could
And now we want to.
