An angry silence stayed where love had been And in your eyes a look I've never seen If I had found the words you might have stayed But as I turned to speak the music played
As lovers danced their way around the floor I suddenly watched you walk towards the door I heard a friend of yours suggest you stay And as you took his hand the music played
Across the darkened room the fatal signs I saw We'd been something more than friends before Well, I was hurting you by clinging to my pride He had been waiting and I drove him to your side
"I couldn't say the things I should have said Refused to let my heart control my head But I was made to see the price I paid And as he held you close The music played"
