A Ring Dance



Always a song in my heart;
But the heart only takes a break.
This love could tare a man apart.
A cup of air just for another mistake.
How long will these hearts have to take.
Before we can stand and scream I do.
Just one less thing for us to celebrate.
Just to have more time without mistakes.
Love is always on time before I was late.
I have no clock to punch.
No watch to tell me the time.
I only care to only show up.
To spend a few seconds with my mind.
When I'm there to show I've never gave up.
For vodka dreams is nothing to a glass of wine.
Something smooth for the tear's we've cried.
Only goodbye when I see you later.
I already feel the part when I die.
For this old heart breaker.
When I see you my soul has a melody.
For an old good piano player.
