Take a walk past the plaza
To check for the vital signs
Snow falls on the bench outside
The story of your life always ends the same It always ends in tears
But don’t show him hope But don’t show him mercy Because what’s done
Is forever done
You can’t turn your back from this You can’t run
So don’t show him hope (Valet) So don’t show him mercy (Please drive) Because what’s done (This man home) is forever done
So don’t show him hope, So don’t show him mercy Because what’s done Is forever done
You can’t turn your back from this You can’t run
Now, who’ll waltz the floor?
Oh, Brave New World on a bed of dust Spread across the shelves of his halls Where nothing was before
Outside the drugstore where you read The story of your life always ends the same
Mesmerized by the snowfall Like the snow, we fall Like the snow, we fade away Tonight, we fall like snow Fade away
Now, who’ll waltz the floor
When all that we hear are mothers crying? Now, who’ll waltz the floor
When all that we hear are mothers calling us home?
Like falling snow, we fall then fade The story of your life always ends the same
Like falling snow
