Dancing Alone

Talked you through the steps

How to pirouette

When I lose control of myself

Now you know the dance so well

When it starts

Take me in your arms

Keep me there until the song is over

Bruises on your shoulders

Oh it's hard, when it's dark

To even put one foot in front of the other

We'll adjust, a bit too much

And we will stumble from the stars to the gutter

'Cause spinning us 'round 'til we both hit the ground is the only move I know

But falling together is better than dancing alone

Followed where I led

Walked you to the edge

Now my legs are turning to stone

Could you carry me home?

Would you

Stay up late?

Take on all the weight?

Keep our balance when you know it's not fair?

Say you're going nowhere?

Oh it's hard, when it's dark

To even put one foot in front of the other

We'll adjust, but not enough

And we will stumble on like faltering lovers

'Cause spinning us 'round 'til we both hit the ground is the only move I know

But falling together is better than dancing alone

All on my own

'Cause spinning us 'round 'til we both hit the ground is the only move I know

But falling together is better than dancing alone
