 It's not a silly little moment 
 A E 
 It's not the storm before the calm

 This is the deep and dying breath of 
 A E 
 This love we've been working on 
 
 
 C#m 
 Can't seem to hold you like I want to 
 A E 
 So I can feel you in my arms 
 C#m 
 Nobody's gonna come and save you

 We pulled too many false alarms

 I was the one you always dreamed of 
 A E 
 You were the one I tried to draw 
 C#m 
 How dare you say it's nothing to me 
 A E 
 Baby, you're the only light I ever saw 
 
 
 C#m 
 I'll make the most of all the sadness

 You'll be a bitch because you can 
 C#m 
 You try to hit me just to hurt me 
 
 So you leave me feeling dirty

What Our Customers Are Saying

“ I am a Steinway and Sons artist, have sold millions of recordings and had over 30 White House performances. Requests were made at a White House party for some Stevie Wonder tunes so I immediately pulled out my iPad, summoned Musicnotes and bought sheet music for "Overjoyed" and "Ribbon in the Sky". Your company has made me look great in so many performances. Thank you for this fabulous gift musicnotes is to performers.

- David Osborne, Steinway Artist and "Pianist to the Presidents"

“ I sing some of the most current songs thanks to Musicnotes. I do not know how I would be able to find such great quality piano pieces and such an affordable price anywhere else. I love that I can find basically any song I want in your wide variety of music. I am also glad that you give a preview of the song so I can hear it before I buy it. This site is such a huge help to my performing abilities and is the ONLY site that I will buy sheet music from.

- Z. Schaffer, High School Student

“ As a piano bar performer I must try to play all requests. I need the sheet music now, today, while it is hot and can earn me tips. I don't have time to find it in a collection or something containing songs I already have, or to wait for the Post Office to deliver it to me. With Musicnotes I can order it, pay for it, and have it in minutes. I can use the song that night & make a better living.

- G. Fitzgerald, Piano Bar Performer

    Lyrics

    This is not a stupid moment It's not the storm before the calm. It's the deep and dying breath of this love that we've been working on. Seems like I can't hold you the way I want to. So I can feel you in my arms. No one will come and save you We pulled out too many false alarms. We're going down And you see it too. We're going down And you know we're doomed. Expensive, We dance slowly in a burning room. I was the one you always dreamed of You were the one I tried to draw. How dare you say it's nothing to me? Baby, you're the only light I've ever seen. I'll make the most of the sadness You will be a bitch because you can. You're trying to hit me just to hurt me. That's why you leave me dirty Because you cannot understand. We're going down And you see it too. We're going down And you know we're doomed. Expensive, We dance slowly in a burning room. Cry about it - why don't you? Cry about it - why don't you? Cry about it - why don't you? Darling we dance slowly in a burning room burning room, burning room, burning room, Burning room. Don't you think we should know? Don't you think we should learn somehow? Don't you think we should know? Don't you think we should learn somehow? Don't you think we should know? Don't you think we should learn somehow? Don't you think we should learn somehow? Don't you think we should learn somehow? Don't you think we should learn somehow? Don't you think we should learn somehow?

    It's not a silly little moment

    It's not the storm before the calm

    This is the deep and dying breath of

    This is the deep and dying breath of

    This love we've been working on.

    The love we worked so hard for.

    Can't seem to hold you like I want to

    0011

    So I can feel you in my arms.

    To feel you in my arms.

    Nobody's gonna come and save you,

    Nobody's gonna come and save you,

    We pulled too many false alarms.

    We sent too many false signals.

    We're going down,

    We're going down,

    And you can see it too.

    You see it too.

    We're going down,

    We're going down,

    And you know that we're doomed.

    And you know we're doomed.

    My dear,

    Dear,

    We're slow dancing in a burning room.

    We are dancing in a room on fire.

    I was the one you always dreamed of,

    You were the one I tried to draw.

    You were the only one I tried to attract.

    How dare you say it's nothing to me?

    How can you say it meant nothing to me?

    Baby, you're the only light I ever saw.

    Baby, you're the only light I see.

    I'll make the most of all the sadness,

    You'll be a bitch because you can.

    You will be a bitch, because you know how.

    You try to hit me just to hurt me

    So you leave me feeling dirty

    0010 Because you can't understand.

    Because you don't understand.

    We're going down,

    We're going down,

    And you can see it too.

    You see it too.

    We're going down,

    We're going down,

    And you know that we're doomed.

    And you know that we are doomed.

    My dear,

    Dear,

    We're slow dancing in a burning room.

    We are dancing in a room on fire.

    Go cry about it - why don't you?

    Come on, cry about it - why aren't you crying?

    Go cry about it - why don't you?

    Come on, cry about it - why aren't you crying?

    Go cry about it - why don't you?

    Come on, cry about it - why aren't you crying?

    My dear, we're slow dancing in a burning room.

    Honey, we're dancing in a room on fire.

    Don't you think we oughta know by now?

    Don't you think it's time for us to understand?

    Don't you think we shoulda learned somehow?

    Don't you think you need to learn something?
