The Living End - So Lonely lyrics

I dance a little closer to you and watch you dance away

Hard selling what we both know tomorrow you may

Not be able to give away

And as I leave the stage

Dancing through my rage

I feel helpless as the music goes on, and we turn to another page

Dancing--everybody's dancing

Moving through the ballet

Never missing a cue

How sad, but how beautiful it can be

To watch the choreography

As we play out our fantasy

Red hair flashing under amber-colored lights

You pirouette too smoothly as you move around your ladies

And your fear of lonely nights

As you leap across the air

You're so perfectly aware

Of your audience in rapt attention

As you hang suspended there

You do have a tender side

I can feel it, though you've always tried to hide

It from me

'Cause you know that I'm one woman who's strong enough to see you

As you've always been afraid to be

Dancing--everybody's dancing
