Don't Feel Like Dancing

I just don't feel like dancing without you No, I just don't feel like dancing without you Making excuses like, "I forgot my wallet, forgot my shoes" No, I just don't feel like dancing In a city named for a man with some awful choices in life It makes sense I met a couple dozen Christophers tonight Business boys backlit by a founding father bar-light And I just don't feel like dancing without you Don't feel like dancing without you Criticizing the jukebox and making fun of the dudes No, I just don't feel like dancing without you But it's not like dancing could undo a time I had with you Undo, undo, undo Can't undo dances I had with you I saw a black and yellow bird on a black and yellow flower I thought about Pittsburgh, I thought about you for an hour How come I rarely let my nostalgia have power And I just don't feel like dancing without you Don't feel like dancing without you Making excuses like "I forgot my wallet or my shoes" Don't feel like dancing without you But it's not like dancing could undo a time I had with you It's not like not dancing would make a memory more true Undo, undo, undo Can't undo dances I had with you Kept commenting, "It's crowded here, it's quite a heavy crowd" Mimosas tasted medical, chemicals felt like clouds Kathy came and talked me down, calling me a clown For faking my face as a frown, calling me a clown So I juggled my nostalgia and I started to stilt around
