the music's playing on
but something's wrong
something's gone
the major's turning blue
and so did you
so did you

I'm noticing the dirt
and it hurts that you left
you really had to go
so you say
so you say

birds leave their nests
and they fly
there's nobody left here but I

if there is a chance
just one in this world
that we'll ever dance
again as it turns
if there is a chance
if there is a way
there's one record left
that you haven't heard

the neighbours had to move
go away
go away
I can't afford to leave
so I'll stay
I have to stay

birds know it's best
to fly
and not stick around and cry

if there is a chance
just one in this world
that we'll ever dance
again as it turns
if there is a chance
if there is a way
there's one record left
that you haven't heard
and I'll keep it spinning...
