lyrics

A second before
I see you smiling
It’s only a moment, but i feel so sure
Beginning to run
I’m losing patience
The rise before the fall
It's a difficult world
Anticipation
Both of us know, it’s your game your rules
I thought I could see, the moves you’re making
But how you proved me wrong

Almost but never more than just a dance my matador
There’s always another turn

A delicate case of misdirection
I follow the steps but when will you show your hand
I’m hesitant now
You’ve got me thinking
Am I the reason why
But nevertheless
I stumble forward
I can’t back out not here not now
I’m not gonna let you off that easy
Before you let me down

Almost but never more than just a dance my matador
Falling for every move
Always another turn
Leaving me to crash and burn
More than I’ve got to lose

You're pristine, I think you’ve been here before
The routine is getting hard to ignore
You're pristine, you might’ve been here before
Obscene, you want me down on the floor

Almost but never more than just a dance my matador
Falling for every move
Always more or less
Forever damned to second guess
There’s always another turn
