'Dancehall of the Dead'*

Save me a waltz
in the Dancehall of the Dead.
sooner or later,
that hand will be dealt
and we'll see,
yes, we'll see
what lies ahead.

We'll all turn that corner
into the unknown.
I'll follow, you lead,
and we'll take our turn.
And we'll see,
yes, we'll see
what lies ahead.

We've had enough practice,
Lord only knows.
We glide, we dip,
I step on your toes.
And we'll see,
yes, we'll see
what for us lies ahead
in the dim-lighted Dancehall
The Dancehall of the Dead.
