Thought I’d have grown out of it by now
Thought I’d open up and sense would pour out
Hoped I’d come to like the things I should
So I prayed to God, it was no good
I like dancing alone
I like swimming offshore
And I’d like to move, to move with you
But I’m dancing alone
Faces seem to multiply so fast
And they melt and morph to faces past
And I don’t like to leave without goodbye
But I do it anyway, I don’t know why
I don’t like dancing alone
Don’t like running for home
And I’d like to move, to move with you
But I’m dancing alone
The current pulls me away
I grab my coat and run to where it’s safe
And if I leave before I should
You’re free to follow into the undergrowth
We’ll get lost
I like dancing, I like swimming offshore
I like dancing, not running
I like dancing alone, alone, alone
