I smoke a cigarette |
|
As i wait in the bath |
|
And i wait for you |
|
For an hour and a half |
|
And i go to the window |
|
Where the sky falls down in rains |
|
And i look across the river |
|
Where they dance the night away |
|
I watch the couples |
|
On the corner of town |
|
Men dressed in black tie |
|
The ladies in gowns |
|
A taxi pulls up |
|
Drives them across the street, |
|
Takes them to a place |
|
Where they dance the night away |
|
Dance the night away |
|
Dance the night away |
|
Dance the night away |
|
I crawl across the bed |
|
Playing the radio low |
|
Trying to forget |
|
What i already know |
|
And i want to sleep |
|
But the song never ends |
|
It comes from a place |
|
Where they dance the night away |
|
I reach in the drawer |
|
And i take out respect |
|
It doctors the sickness |
|
I took years to perfect |
|
And i feel sweet sleep |
|
Like the shadows on a charm |
|
Moves to my brain |
|
Where i dance the night away |
|
Dance the night away |
|
Dance the night away |
|
Dance the night away |
|
Dance the night away |
|
Dance the . . . |
