Dancing the Night Away

                                  So you want to believe

Everything that you read

And you think that you're makin' the grade

(and) just when you're getting it made

You're still in love with her

She'd love you to kiss her

Hopin' you'll miss her

By takin' your mind off the load

Just when you're ready to go

You turn your back on her

You just got your mind on the things ahead

At last you're gonna be free

You'll only miss her

Just after you kiss her



Dancing the night away

Dancing the night away

Dancing the night away

Dancing the night away

Dancing the night away

Dancing the night away



So you turn on the smiles

'cause you think of the time

And nobody knows who you are

You don't think you'll get very far

I don't even know your name

At last they accept you

In case you go next year

And ask you to reach for the sky

And just when you're ready to die

They turn their back on you

So they put you on ice

In survival hotel

And wish you would die from the cold

When all you want is a night alone



Dancing the night away

Dancing the night away

Dancing the night away

Dancing the night away

Dancing the night away

Dancing the night away
