dancing above the clouds I hold you close in my dreams spinning beneath the starlight with you for always tonight somewhere out there in space now infinite peace I'll sing softly to you as we lie together somewhere lost within time as we cease to exist tranquility as we die together we dance above the night sky lit up by glittering stars time and space cease to exist this moment is only ours somewhere out there in space now infinite peace I'll sing softly to you as we lie together somewhere lost within time as we cease to exist tranquility as we die together never stop dancing never stop singing hold me close while you can live in this moment like it's our last time moves forevermore this is our love's closing dance this is our heart's final song take your last breath with me our souls can now be set free somewhere out there in space now infinite peace I'll sing softly to you as we lie together somewhere lost within time as we cease to exist tranquility as we die together
