Dance, Dance (Tommie Sunshine's radio edit) Lyrics

She says she's no good, with words but I'm worse
Barely stuttered out "A joke of romantic" stuck to my tongue.
Weighed down with words, too over-dramatic.
Tonight it's "it can't get much worse" vs. "no one should ever feel like..."
I'm two-quarters and a heart down,
And I don't wanna forget how your voice sounds.
These words are all I have, so I'll write 'em down,
So you need them just to get by.

Dance, Dance;
We're falling apart to half-time
Dance, Dance;
And these are the lives you love to lead
Dance, this is the way they'd love
If they knew how misery loved me.

You always fold just before you found out.
Drink up, it's last call, last resort
But only the first mistake and I...
I'm two-quarters and a heart down,
And I don't wanna forget how your voice sounds.
These words are all I have, so I'll write 'em down,
So you need them just to get by.

Why don't you show me the little bit of spine
You've been saving for his mattress, Love?

Dance, Dance;
We're falling apart to half-time
Dance, Dance;
And these are the lives you love to lead
Dance, this is the way they'd love
If they knew how misery loved me.
Why don't you show me the little big of spine
You've been saving for his mattress?
I only want sympathy in the form of you crawling into bed with me.

Dance, Dance.
Dance, Dance.
Dance, Dance.
Dance, Dance.
