Lyrics

He saw a lonely girl
She saw a lonely world
It was a canvas
Slyly careless
A florestan lieder

And his was a dying breed
Courage came only from
His symphonies
A decorative smile
To fade out
His concerto in a

Come on
A second chance at love
The moments dead
Make you feel like it's never staying

Made love to a baby grand
A tempest refined inside his hands
He had one girl, and one song
Bone fide wine and roulade

But he had to give it up
His heart was raw
But his fingers numb
His first words were his last words
An aesthete since first sun

Come on
A second chance at love
The moments slept
Make you feel like it's never staying

It burned
The first attempt or two
But I remembered you
I need that moment back

Please don't, don't don't
A tremor for death
Ivories that sliced sedatives in half
Releif in the rhine
Washed away regrets
And let him char before he
Carressed the ground

Dear artist you will rise again
A last arabesque in faint fashion

Come on
A second change at love
The moments dead
Make you feel like it's never ending

It burned
The first attempt or two
But I remembered you
I need that moment back
Please don't forget

He woke
A final view of blue
Dear cordias. wet rouge
Relieve romance to graves
Please, please don't forget
