This Dance Just Won’t Go - lyrics
This dance just won’t go,
It never should have passed the first hello;
Let’s grab the chance to stop it,
No matter what the yearning.
Your mouth is so warm,
Better turn your head and walk away from harm;
Let’s grab the chance to stop it,
No matter what the yearning.
Sultry afternoons are made for lovers with a future,
With time to cross their fingers and hope for things to come,
But what have we to look to but a little time of pleasure,
Then a sad squeeze of my arm and you’re gone…
This dance just won’t go,
It never should have passed the first hello;
Don’t ask me to stop, come let us
Bathe in the glow of our future burning.
