The Way You Dance

(album: The Black Rose - 2007)

Softly like a touch of a dark angel
Her hand in yours
You're dressed to kill
Can she tell

Swing your partner to the right
Swing your partner to the left
It scares me, the way you dance
She looks pretty
Hair glittering with confetti
How does it feel man
Hold steady
Is she ready
Does she like it dancing on the broken glass

Watching you from across the room
One hand on the waist while the other, knuckles turning white
Are you holding on for dear life or does she not know how to let go

Swing your partner to the left
It scares me, the way you dance
She looks pretty
Hair glittering with confetti
How does it feel man
Hold steady
Is she ready
Does she like it dancing on the broken glass

I see you're wearing your shoes
Where are hers
And see I'm wearing my shoes

I don't want to but in this square dance
Everybody has to dance
Everybody dance now

Swing your partner to the left
It scares me, the way you dance
She looks pretty
Hair glittering with confetti
How does it feel man
Hold steady
Is she ready
Does she like it dancing on her broken dreams
