Lyrics
woke up this morning your sights are cold memories linger like stories untold your laughter fades in the morning light it still burns bright everything pulls me closer to you even though our love is through oh heartbreak sweet heartbreak you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain i'm under starry skies love sweet goodbye turning tears to joy smiles we share whisper promises in the end now the room feels empty echoes of us but i rise up in love i trust every step leads me back to the flame calling your name but not the same heartbreak sweet heartbreak you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain i'm under starry skies you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain i'm under starry skies you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain i'm under starry skies you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain i'm under starry skies you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain i'm under starry skies you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain i'm under starry skies you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain i'm under starry skies you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain i'm under starry skies you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain i'm under starry skies you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain you tore me apart but i feel alive dancing through the pain
