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! |
