Dance, dance
She says she's no good with wordsBut I'm worseBarely stuttered out"A joke of a romantic" or stuck to my tongueWeighed down with wordsToo over-dramaticTonight it's "it can't get much worse"Vs. "no one should ever feel like.."
I'm two quarters and a heart downAnd I don't want to forgetHow your voice soundsThese words are all I haveSo I'll write themSo you need them just to get by
(We're going into D-Minor)
(Chorus)Dance, DanceWe're falling apart to half timeDance, DanceAnd these are the livesYou'd love to leadDance, this is the way they'd loveIf they knew how misery loved me
You always foldJust before you're found outDrink up its last callLast resortBut only the first mistake and I...
I'm two quarters and a heart downAnd I don't want to forgetHow your voice soundsThese words are all I haveSo I'll write themSo you need them just to get by
Why don't you show meThe little bit of spineYou've been saving for his mattress, Love?
(Chorus)
Why don't you show meThe little bit of spineYou've been saving for his mattress (mattress, mattress)I only want sympathyIn the form of youCrawling into bed with me
Dance, DanceWe're falling apart to half timeDance, DanceAnd these are the livesYou'd love to lead
DanceThis is the way they'd love(Way they'd love)DanceThis is the way they'd love(Way they'd love)Dance this is the way they'd loveIf they knew how misery loved me
