Dancing In The Dark

Dancing In The Dark - Michael Stanley Band

(trans. by Tish)



Here I am with some time on my hands

And I haven't got lines for just a minute or two

Something easy crosses my mind, when I recall

When love was new



You went your way and I went mine

And our lives seldom cross but when they do

Can't help rememberin' all of the times

When love was new

When love was new



We were dancing in the dark

(dancing in the dark)

Just a couple of fools

Holding you close and

Breaking all the rules

Doesn't everything get covered by those first love's blues



I'm not lonely and my life's quite complete

And my lady is sweet, the children are fat

Just in passing, you cross my mind and I look up

All about the time...



When we were dancing in the dark

(dancing in the dark)

Just a couple of fools

Holding you close and

Breaking all the rules

Doesn't everything get covered by those first love's blues



Something about the past was quite amusing

You can change it any way with ease

As I'm sitting here and thinking of you

Do you know what I really need?



When we were dancing in the dark

(dancing in the dark)

Just a couple of fools

Holding you close and

Breaking all the rules

Doesn't everything get covered by those first love's blues

Everything gets covered by those first love's blues.
