This Dance

(album: Twisted Rivers - 2020)

Can't tell a lie
She's got her mama's eyes
I swear they always keep me guessing
Don't act surprised
As if I didn't try
Don't smile, as if you learned your lesson

I don't need nobody, baby, to teach me about romance
I've done this dance a time or two, I think I remember the steps

I don't mind if I eat alone
That's not the part that scares me, baby
I don't mind being stuck at home
It's the thought of you that kills me lately

I bet it all
There ain't no after this
She said, "I think that's what the point is"
You'll never find
Somebody else like me
Don't try, you'll just be disappointed

I don't need nobody, baby, to teach me to move on
Don't point your finger at me like I am the only one that's wrong

I don't mind if I eat alone
That's not the part that scares me, baby
I don't mind being stuck at home
It's the thought of you that kills me lately

Can't tell a lie
She's got her mama's eyes
I swear they always keep me guessing
Don't act surprised
He's got his father's smile
Don't laugh, as if you learned your lesson

I don't mind if I eat alone
That's not the part that scares me, baby
I don't mind being stuck at home
It's the thought of you that kills me lately

I don't mind if I eat alone
That's not the part that scares me, baby
I don't mind being stuck at home
It's the thought of you that kills me lately
