lyrics

Galvanized the iron in my blood
To protect you from the people who ask "why and why not"
All because of a breach of trust
I was but rust

Then I saw your mouth began to move
I guess that you have yours to prove
I couldn't hear what you said
With those lips of red

Standing in a room without a floor
I looked around in search of the missing door
Then looked you in the eyes and saw
Something I hadn't seen before

We were standing on a stage
Just outside the spotlights glare
Our hands reached out to each other
I could swear that I was there

I saw your mouth began to move
I guess that we have ours to prove
I couldn't hear what you said
With those lips of red

Saw us standing on a stage
Just outside the spotlights glare
Our hands reached out to each other
I could swear that I was there

(Solo)

We were standing on a stage
Just outside the spotlights glare
Our hands reached out to each other
I could swear that I was there
