I didn’t want to leave the house

But I followed you

You left our table for the dance floor

I never knew

I sat there looking at the old barkeep

Such sad eyes

For no amount of beauty would he crack a smile

You can bet I’d dance if I could do it

I would glide on by

Keep my distance from the wall

You can bet I’d dance if I could do it

I would glide on by

I would sway and they would fall

I’ve changed my mind a million times

All morning long

I picked through bracelets and bangles

They all felt wrong

Is this whole city hung over?

How the sidewalk sticks

To the rubber beneath my toes

You can bet I’d dance if I could do it

I would glide on by

Keep my distance from the wall

You can bet I’d dance if I could do it

I would glide on by

I would sway and they would fall
