Dm G
Let's love what's left

Last dance First breath
New friends Hard won
Old friends Shine on

The frost is cruel

And fades the sign
F E
On that little place
Bb A
That I call mine
Let's love What's left
like new born First breath
Old star new shine
Old cup new wine
Sun rise Moon glow
Someday We'll know
Inch by inch
Word by word
The lock is sprung
That caged the bird
Let's love What's left
Last dance First breath
Last dance First breath
Last dance First breath
