Can we be alone?
Out of starlight
And out of breath
On a cold night in December with the blinds closed
Don't answer the phone
Can we be alone?
Two smiles by the candlelight
And not a stale conversation like the bread they served an hour ago
Step one-two, follow-through
Right on cue, ooo
We're just dancers on a stage
I've got two, eyes for you
Right on cue, ooo
Before the curtain calls our names
Can we be alone?
Just take away the spotlight
Take your breathing out of context and you'd think that we were all alone
Step one-two, follow-through
Right on cue, ooo
We're just dancers on a stage
I've got two, eyes for you
Right on cue, ooo
Before the curtain calls our names
Before the curtain calls our names
Can we be alone?
On and on and on, she's leading you, on and on and on
Your step is too late, too late.
On and on and on, she's leading you, on and on and on
Your step is too late, too late.
Step one-two, follow-through
Right on cue, ooo
We're just dancers on a stage
I've got two, eyes for you
Right on cue, ooo
Before the curtain calls our names
Before the curtain calls our names
Can we be alone?
