Lyrics

Dance Away

There's a hidden meaning in everything he says

Every close encounter, every kiss, every caress

Even the truth has got that bitter taste of a lie

Well, I can read his lips now

I can't read his mind

I can see him dance away now

Oh oh - oh oh oh

I can see him dance away now

Oh oh - oh oh oh

Yeah he was one of the kind that seems so hard to find

There's a change of weather yeah

Now he leaves me far behind

That I don't matter to him came as such a surprise

Well, I can read his lips now

I thought I red his eyes, yeah yeah

And I can see him dance away now

Oh oh (dance) - oh oh oh (dance)

I can see him dance away now

Oh oh (dance) - oh oh oh (dance)

Dancing away

I can see him dance away now

Oh oh (dance) - oh oh oh (dance)

Dancing away from me

Dance away now

Oh oh (dance) - oh oh oh (dance) yeah yeah

Oh I can see him dance away now

Oh oh (dance) - oh oh oh (dance)

I can see him dance away now

Oh oh (dance) - oh oh oh (dance)

Dancing away

I can see him dance away now

Oh oh (dance) - oh oh oh (dance)

Dancing away from me

Dance away now

Oh oh (dance) - oh oh oh (dance)

Dancing away from me

Dance away now

Oh oh (dance) - oh oh oh (dance)
