Somehow

Dance on the ivory, sing to the wall
One more chord and the song is gone
Sorry is not the hardest word you can say
The hardest thing to do is to say You're through
So continue in the dance and just play

Motions are limited, but they love to watch
You've sung to them and describe the lives
Of those of us who are so much like you
You're one of us, but we could never touch you
You're our brother who carries us through

Sing to the glass to the people behind
Listen to your voice coming back to you
you've never heard it quite like it is now
Someone's final song, but maybe not your own
You're not happy but someone will be somehow.
Somehow.
