A Different Beat

Six foot five said that he'd be waiting
Five foot four, she was hesitating
Was he like the rest? Could he be the best?
How could it hurt to try?

"Time to go," he says, sees her blinking
"Now you're mine, I can't have you drinking
Let's make a home all on our own"
How could it hurt to try?

But that was then
They still felt like friends
Now she never, she never, she never, she never
Was brave enough to say no
Oh yeah, that was then
She still saw her friends
Did she ever, she ever, she ever, she ever
Feel brave enough to just go?

Can she see what could be?
What should be?

She's been dancing behind closed curtains
Warming up for a lightless certain
Walks on eggshells, stealing herself
How could it hurt to try?

Six foot four, now he stoops a little
Five foot six in high heels from Lidl
But for a life, a fun of a kind
How could it hurt to try?

She remembers then
They still felt like friends
Well, she never, she never, she never, she never
Feel brave enough to say no
She remembers when
She still saw her friends
Did she ever, she ever, she ever, she ever
Feel brave enough to just go?

Now she sees what could be
What should be
Yeah, she sees what could be
What should be

Now she's out, she slips into the crowd
With the volume in loud
She moves her feet to a different beat
Now she is out, she slips into the crowd
With the volume in loud
She moves her feet to a different beat
Now she is out, she slips into the crowd
With the volume in loud

She moves her feet to a different beat
Now she's out on the dance floor (Now she is out, she slips into the crowd)
It's all okay before
But she knows she'll never get to go out anymore (She moves her feet to a different beat)
Now she's out on the dance floor (She moves her feet to a different beat)
It's all okay before (She moves her feet to a different beat)
And she knows she'll never get to go out anymore (She moves her feet to a different beat)

She moves her feet to a different beat
She moves her feet to a different beat
She moves her feet, she moves her feet
She moves her feet to a different beat
