Lyrics

You're sitting in the darkness, you're dancing in the light You really hit the big time, I really took a dive I'm running in the rain, you're dancing in the light I'm waiting for the train that never will arrive You left me twisting in the wind, dangling in the night You'll be Mr. Christian, and I'll be Captain Bligh Look at you with your face all shining Got some new work and some realigning Now that your nose got some redefining You look like a million bucks I got a sinking feeling, you and your wheeling dealing I'm gonna hit the ceiling, bang the ground with a bump My whole world is crashing, I took a violent thrashing Something to throw the trash in, I'm at the garbage dump What'd I ever do? You treat me so bad You're living in a penthouse, my flat is dark and damp Yeah, what's the matter, baby? We used to be so tight I'm living in the gloom, while you're dancing in the light Yeah, I got that sinking feeling, whose potatoes are you peeling? Can't you hear my poor heart squealing? I'm in the garbage dump Yeah, what's next? Yeah You're lying in the sunshine, I'm hanging in a cloud You're basking in the spotlight, I'm lost and in the crowds, yes What am I gonna do about you? What am I gonna do? What am I gonna do about you? What am I gonna do? I don't have a clue without you, what am I gonna do? I'm in a dark place, baby I've got to, I've got to wear a grim face, baby You've got me with the heartaches, yeah Get me out of the dark place What am I gonna do without you? What am I gonna do? If I was your new boyfriend, I would have stage fright While you're riding in a limo, I'm wheeling my bike, yeah What am I gonna do without you? What am I gonna do? What am I gonna do without you? What I'm gonna do? Oh yeah, oh yeah Dancing in the light, oh Dancing in the light, come on Yeah, oh yeah Oh, yeah, oh
