Catie Curtis Everybody Was Dancing Lyrics

Everybody Was Dancing Lyrics

She runs right out to the very edge

Then takes a step back to clear her head

She got married at twenty one

After thirty years, it's hard to jump, it's hard to jump



And everybody was dancing on their wedding day

And all her friends have been asking

"Why would you throw it away?"

And she doesn't know what to say



He is watching from back in his chair

Wondering if she's bluffing or if it's a dare

And he'd like to tell her they can work it out

But the tender words won't come out, they won't come out



And everybody was dancing on their wedding day

And all their friends have been asking

"Why would you throw it away?"

And she doesn't know what to say



She feels the terror most when she looks down

She drops a penny and doesn't hear a sound

And yet the silence in her own home

Begs the question, "Why not be alone, why not alone?"



And everybody was dancing on their wedding day

And to herself she is asking

"Why do I stay?"

And she doesn't know what to say
