The guitar part is sort of derived from The Marginot Waltz and probably something else deep in my sub concious.
Lyrics
Take this waltz take this waltz
That's been playing so long
and I'm tired of the same minor key
Take this waltz take this waltz
It just goes on and on
won't you show some mercy to me
I was the victim or maybe the slayer
You were a dancer in search of a player
and I was just someone who happened along at the time
Take this waltz take this waltz
now my head's in a spin
and I don't want to dance anymore
Take this waltz take this waltz
how my whole body aches
and I wish I could get to the door
I was a poor man and you were a rich girl
I wanted a lover, you wanted the ritual
and I was just someone who happened along at the time
Take this waltz take this waltz
can't we have a short break
to stop swaying and counting to three
Take this waltz take this waltz
must the torture persist
how my soul just cries out to be free
I was a rover who crossed many oceans
You were a goddess in search of devotion
I was just someone who happened along at the time
Take this waltz take this waltz
That's been playing so long
and I'm tired of the same minor key
Take this waltz take this waltz
It just goes on and on
won't you show some mercy to me
Midnight trapped dreamers who walked in the same dream
'til it fractured and splintered like glass in the sunlight
Two lonely people who happened along at one time
