HEAVEN HAS A DANCE FLOOR

Synthpop that grows into arena rock one instrument at a time - a room built for somebody who is not here to use it.

Read the lyric sheet

Intro

At one thirteen the apartment goes quiet. I give the night another room.

Verse 1

Your coat gets the chair by the exit sign. Your glass leaves a ring by the edge of mine. You laugh too loud when the old song lands. You lose at cards with a grin in your hands. No gates in the clouds, no angels in white. Just Tuesday running past midnight.

Pre-chorus

I don't say I know where anybody goes. I just need somewhere for the night to go.

Chorus

Heaven has a dance floor. That's the place I made for you. Cheap shoes on a wood floor. One more song you stumble through. Heaven has a dance floor. When this room gets too quiet, I turn the pulse back on for you.

Verse 2

One of you checks if the last bus ran. One drums the table with both bare hands. One tells that joke that was bad at nineteen. One wipes the bar though nobody asked them. One says, "Play that one." One says, "Not again." Then all of you laugh like the night won't end.

Chorus

Heaven has a dance floor. That's the place I made for you. Cheap shoes on a wood floor. One more song you stumble through. Heaven has a dance floor. When this room gets too quiet, I turn the pulse back on for you.

Bridge

Then morning puts the chairs away. The make-believe won't cross the day. I know that room is only mine, a little club behind my eyes. No map, no proof, no promise there. Just borrowed noise and borrowed air.

Chorus

Heaven has a dance floor. That's the place I made for you. No map, no proof, no promise. Just one pulse I can come back to. Heaven has a dance floor. Till the morning cuts it through. The room goes back to empty. I carry home the tune.

Outro

I leave one beat and call it you.
