Lonely Dance

Got no time for a date
I'm always away
No getting coffee for me
I'm way too busy
I've gotta make some money
Got some the bills to pay
There's many rabbits to chase
And no time to play
It's a life of misery, I chose it
There's nothing else in the world
I'd rather be doing
Still inside there's something I'm missing
I never used to mind, but now I can't stand it
Certainly I have made
Very well for myself
A mansion with a name
Silverware on my shelf
But how could it replace
Loving somebody else?
Don't wanna do the lonely dance tonight
I used to think of love
As a waste of my time
I sought to rise above
Chasing riches and dimes
But that was all before you entered my life
Don't wanna do the lonely dance tonight
Don't wanna do the lonely dance tonight
Don't wanna do the lonely dance tonight
Don't wanna do the lonely dance tonight
Don't wanna do the lonely dance tonight
It's not enough to burn
And I am quite aware
That you must feel concerned
With the way that I stare
I've got the will to learn
And a lifetime to spare
Don't let me do the lonely dance tonight
I'm just another fool
At the end of the day
But if ever you look
Past the odd in my ways
You'll find a heart so full
You'll be the one to say
Don't let me do the lonely dance tonight
Don't wanna do the lonely dance tonight
Don't wanna do the lonely dance tonight
Don't wanna do the lonely dance tonight
Don't wanna do the lonely dance tonight
Certainly I have made
Very well for myself
A mansion with a name
Silverware on my shelf
But how could it replace
Loving somebody else?
Don't wanna do the lonely dance tonight
Don't wanna do the lonely dance tonight
Don't wanna do the lonely dance tonight
Don't wanna do the lonely dance tonight
Don't wanna do the lonely dance tonight

If you wanna come down to the meat market
If you wanna come down and fool me, this could be your chance
You wouldn't believe all you could get
For the price of a drink and a dance
But if you think the wrapping looks nice
Just wait till you see what inside
If you wanna find out where the wild things are
If you wanna find out right this minute,
There's no reason why
You should need to travel far
The asylum is passing you right by
And if you think the wrapping looks nice
Just wait till you see what's inside
If you wanna come down to the meat market
If you wanna find out how good it could get
You wouldn't believe all you can get
For the price of a drink and a dance
And if you think the wrapping looks nice
If you think the wrapping looks nice
If you think the wrapping looks nice
Wait till you see what's inside

Well, time will help us underline the happy chapters
Now I can't help but see the lie in you ever after
I've no desire to carry on all by my lonesome
I'm just a black stone on the roll when all is said and done
That's the way it goes
But what about the way you held my hand?
The way our fingers seemed to lock so perfectly
The way I felt at ease in your silence
Don't tell me all the dreamy nights were just a dream
Well now I think about it
We could have been so much more
That's the way she goes down
That's the way she drowns
And it could be so easy
It could be so easy
It could be so easy
To let me be the one to change it all
Well time will help us cauterize the open wounds
Sometimes its walking through the fire that lands you the moon
And I've no desire to carry on by my lonesome
I'm just a black stone on the roll when all is said and done
That's the way it goes
But what about the way you held my hand?
The way our fingers seemed to lock so perfectly
The way I felt at ease in your silence
Don't tell me all the dreamy nights were just a dream
Well now I think about it
We could have been so much more
That's the way she goes down
That's the way she drowns
And it could be so easy
It could be so easy
It could be so easy

My only friend has disappeared into the night
Without even an explanation as to why
And it feels like a cloud of smoke has been pulled over my eyes
It's almost spring, and you can tell that very soon
The air will ring of little birds singing in tune
But the song playing in my heart is a lonely lullabye
And I'd like to forget her but
She was
My lover
My muse
My saviour
And I don't
Know for sure
Who I'll be
Without her
I can't believe that she really would up and leave
Now I'm all alone, this old house ain't no home
What times we had my darling
When I could still call you mine
Our honey days were meant to last until forever
I'd found a way to read your mind like a letter
How I wish the hands on the clock would return to a time
When I knew you better
I'm trying to forget her, but
She was
My lover
My muse
My saviour
And I don't
Know for sure
Who I'll be
Without her
I can't believe that she really would up and leave
Now I'm all alone, this old house ain't no home
What times we had my darling
When I could still call you mine
What times we had my darling
When I could still call you mine

Kiss the Whole World
05:03

Some people need to
Kiss the whole world just to
Convince themselves
That somebody still cares
With no happy end in view
Despair is nothing new
Would you rather lose in a winner's world?
But I believe I'll be okay again
And I know I'll do the right thing then
Yes it's hard to see how
Just looking at me now
But I'll be okay somehow
Some people want to
Watch the world burn just to
Convince themselves
That we're all dead inside
With no happy end in view
Despair is nothing new
Would you rather lose in a winner's world?
But I believe I'll be okay again
And I know I'll do the right thing then
Yes it's hard to see how
Just looking at me now
But I'll be okay somehow
Some people would do
Just about anything to
Convince themselves
That there's no paradise
With no happy end in view
Despair is nothing new
Don't wanna be a loser in a winner's world?
But I believe I'll be okay again
And I know I'll do the right thing then
Yes it's hard to see how
Just looking at me now
But I'll be okay somehow
