Dancing Days (Bonus Demo)

Young man with a stone to throw

Take a breath and just let it go

Angry man with a cross to bear

Now you see life just isn’t fair

Oh, let it go

Greater men have had their day to face the music

Realise you’ve made your bed

Read what the papers say

Your dancing days are over

The smile on your face will never hide your shame

You can’t escape what they say

Your dancing days are over

The ghosts you see are shouting out your name

Oh, how you danced

Oh, how you sang

There is a feeling here that you began

Oh, how we stood and stared

Held on to every breath

It seemed the world stood still

Transfixed by every step

Oh, let it go

Lesser men will be your crowd in captivation

Lesser men will tear you down

Read what the papers say

Your dancing days are over

The smile on your face will never hide your shame

You can’t escape what they say

Your dancing days are over

The ghosts you see are shouting out your name

The ghosts you see are shouting out your name

The baying crowd demands a son to blame

Condemn a man and celebrate his pain

So glad to be a witness to your fame

Old man sings his final song

And wonders where it all went wrong

Read what the papers say

Your dancing days are over

The smile on your face will never hide your shame

You can’t escape what they say

Your dancing days are over

The ghosts you see are shouting out your name

Read what the papers say

Your dancing days are over

The smile on your face will never hide your shame

You can’t escape what they say

Your dancing days are over

The ghosts you see are shouting out your name

The ghosts you see are shouting out your name

So glad to be a witness to your fame
