Cover art for Last Dance lyrics by Raveonettes, The

I agree totally with oujwells about the "sad-eyed stare". Why does nobody else realize that? Another expression that is misunderstood on ALL lyrics sites is "star-crossed". The expression "star-crossed" just means that you are in love with somebody but she is in love with somebody else - in this case she is "in love" with her drugs.

The real lyrics are thus like this:

Your lipstick is smeared and sad,
I adore you, I always have And every time you overdose, I rush to intensive care Another sad-eyed stare, before you disappear

If this is the last dance, this is the last dance Then save it for me baby If this is the last dance, this is the last dance Then save it for me baby Oooh, Then save it for me baby Oooh, save it for me baby

Your addiction and you are in love. Like star-crossed, I wait my turn And every time you overdose, I rush to intensive care Another sad-eyed stare, before you disappear.

If this is the last dance, this is the last dance Then save it for me baby If this is the last dance, this is the last dance Then save it for me baby Ooohh, save it for me baby

I wanna know, I wanna know If it's the last, if it's the last dance I wanna know, I wanna know Baby baby please......

If this is the last dance, this is the last dance Then save it for me baby If this is the last dance, this is the last dance Then save it for me baby.... save it for me baby
