We learned the steps of the dance
We left the rest up to chance
O the lessons we learn
Once the tables turn
We saw no reason to wait
Why should love need to hesitate
O the things we discern
Once the tables turn
One thing stood between you and me
That one thing they call reality
That one thing neither one could see
'Til the truth set us free
Words we have come to regret
Things we would rather forget
Watching as the bridges all burn
Once the tables have turned
O the wisdom we spurned
Once the tables have turned
