Where the Bright Drums Turn

[Verse 1] Curtains rise on a room full of gold Every promise is waiting to be told I take your hand, the orchestra begins One little step and the night lets us in [Pre-Chorus] We were quiet, we were careful, we were afraid to start Now the rhythm finds the doorway to my heart [Chorus] Take me where the bright drums turn Where every secret gets its chance to burn Raise your voice, let the whole room know We are alive, and we're ready to go Tonight the story changes in our hands Tonight we make our own commands When the final curtain falls from view I'll still be dancing here with you [Verse 2] Silver shoes on a wooden floor We don't need what we needed before Your eyes say more than a thousand lines I lose my place, then I find the timing [Pre-Chorus] Let the old rules fade behind the door We have waited long enough for something more [Chorus] Take me where the bright drums turn Where every secret gets its chance to burn Raise your voice, let the whole room know We are alive, and we're ready to go Tonight the story changes in our hands Tonight we make our own commands When the final curtain falls from view I'll still be dancing here with you [Bridge] If the lights go out, remember this The bravest scene began with one small risk No perfect line, no rehearsed reply Just your open heart beside mine [Final Chorus] Take me where the bright drums turn Where every dream gets its chance to burn Raise your voice, let the whole room know We are alive, and we're ready to go Tonight the story changes in our hands Tonight we make our own commands When the final curtain falls from view I'll still be dancing here with you [Outro] Curtains fall, but the feeling stays We write tomorrow in a thousand ways
