Let's Have This Dance - Blue Edition (feat. Khary Payton & Laura Bailey)

from Stray Gods by Austin Wintory, Tripod & Montaigne

lyrics

It is an ugly business
Living among the gods
You’ll always twist an arm
Even if you’re trying not to
And so, I say let’s do it!
The world, it needs that guy
Who is prepared to move the pieces
In from every side

All of the world’s on the edge of a knife
So I choose partying, there’s no need for strife

So dance, little Gracie
Come, won’t you dance
Only so much of your life’s
In your hands
Haven’t I helped you?
The rest is chance
So, come on
Let’s have this dance

So what? The call was close?
We’re both alive and well!
You’ll live to fight another day
As far as I can tell
And even if you don’t
And I expect you won’t
I promise you’ll be glad
You spent the night with me

So dance, little Gracie
Come, won’t you dance
Only so much of your life’s
In your hands
Haven’t I helped you?
The rest is chance
So, come on
Let’s have this dance

Do you really think I’m so hopeless?
Or is it you who’s afraid
To show me
How you really feel?

Don’t be like that, Grace
We both know
This is just who I am
I can’t change, so
Take it or leave it
I won’t repeat it
I’m only here for the dance
