Dance The Night Away Lyrics

Dance The Night Away lyrics

I smoke a cigarette

As I wait in the bath

And I wait for you 

For an hour and a half

And I go to the window 

Where the sky falls down in rains

And I look across the river 

Where they dance the night away



I watch the couples

On the corner of town

Men dressed in black tie

The ladies in gowns

A taxi pulls up

Drives them across the street,

Takes them to a place 

Where they dance the night away



Dance the night away

Dance the night away

Dance the night away



I crawl across the bed

Playing the radio low

Trying to forget

What I already know

And I want to sleep

But the song never ends 

It comes from a place

Where they dance the night away



I reach in the drawer

And I take out respect

It doctors the sickness 

I took years to perfect

And I feel sweet sleep

Like the shadows on a charm

Moves to my brain

Where I dance the night away



Dance the night away

Dance the night away

Dance the night away

Dance the night away

Dance the . . .
