An angry silence stayed where love had been

And in your eyes a look i've never seen

If i had found the words you might have stayed

But as i turned to speak the music played

As lovers danced their way around the floor

I suddenly watched you walk towards the door

I heard a friend of yours suggest you stay

And as you took his hand the music played

Across the darkened room the fatal signs i saw

We'd been something more than friends before

Well i was hurting you by clinging to my pride

He had been waiting and i drove him to your side

I couldn't say the things i should have said

Refused to let my heart control my head

But i was made to see the price i paid

And as he held you close the music played

And as i lost your love the music played
