Dancing Days

Text und Musik / lyrics and music by J.Blunt, S.Skarbek, J.Hogarth 

Young man with a stone to throw

Take a breath and just let it go

Angry man with a cross to bear

Now you see life just isn’t fair

Oh, let it go

Cause you wake up in happy days

Face the music

In your eyes you’ve made your bed

Read what the papers say

Your dancing days are over

The smile on your face will never hide your shame

You can’t escape what they say

Your dancing days are over

The ghosts you see are shouting out your name

Oh how you danced, oh how you sang

There’s a feeling here that you began

Oh how you stood and stared

Held onto every breath

It seemed the world stood still

Transfixed by every step

Oh, let it go

Cos a lesser man would be your crowd

Captivation,lesser men will tear you down

Read what the papers say

Your dancing days are over

The smile on your face will never hide your shame

You can’t escape what they say

Your dancing days are over

The ghosts you see are shouting out your name

The ghosts you see are shouting out your name

The very crowd demand it's not to blame

The demi man celebrates his pain

So glad to be with him through your pain

Old man sings his final song

And wonders where it all went wrong

Read what the papers say

Your dancing days are over

The smile on your face will never hide your shame

You can’t escape what they say

Your dancing days are over

The ghosts you see are shouting out your name

Read what the papers say

Your dancing days are over

The smile on your face will never hide your shame

You can’t escape what they say

Your dancing days are over

The ghosts you see are shouting out your name

The ghosts you see are shouting out your name

The very crowd demands it's not to blame

The demi man celebrates his pain

So glad to be with us through your pain.
