Sweet Sucker Dance |
| I almost closed the door |
| Cancelled on everything we opened up for |
| Tonight the shadows had their say |
| Their sad notions of the way |
| Things really are |
| Damn these blues! |
| They’d turn my heart against you |
| Since I was fool enough |
| To find romance |
| I’m trying to convince myself |
| This is just a dance! |
| We move in measures |
| Through loves' changing faces |
| Needy and nonchalant |
| Greedy and gracious |
| Through petty dismissals |
| And grand embraces |
| Like it was only a dance! |
| We are survivors |
| Some get broken |
| Some get mended |
| Some can’t surrender |
| They’re too well defended |
| Some get lucky |
| Some are blessed |
| And some pretend |
| This is only a dance! |
| We’re dancing fools |
| You and me |
| Tonight it’s a dance of insecurity |
| It’s my solo |
| While you’re away |
| Shadows have the saddest thing to say |
| Love |
| We can’t live without it |
| Why do we go out and get it |
| Just to turn around and doubt it |
| LIke we’re scared to care |
| It’s hard to talk about it |
| Aw--it's only a dance |
| Tonight the shadows had their say |
| There’s a sucker born a day |
| I heard them say |
| Born to lose |
| Am I a sucker to love you? |
| You’re such a sweet love |
| You’re a proud man |
| You’re a treasure |
| Time passes gracefully |
| Living can be such a pleasure |
| You make it easy to take it in measures |
| Like it was only a dance! |
| We’re dancing fools |
| You and me |
| Tonight it’s a dance of insecurity |
| It’s my solo |
| Blue way |
| And shadows have the saddest things to say |
| We are survivors |
| Some get broken |
| Some get mended |
| Some can’t surrender |
| They’re too well defended |
| Some get lucky |
| Some are blessed |
| And some pretend |
| It’s only a dance! |
