While We Go Dancing

Kids go out to the corner-shop

I took the time to see them off

I went back in to watch you sleep

It don't mean much, these seats are cheap

And the daylight goes away so soon

I've had my fill in the afternoon

So lets take a walk downtown

That's a problem of your own

You'll find a reason to stay at home

Tonight you're on your own

There's something that you wanna say

I'm not asking

As you sleep your nights away

While we go dancing toe to toe

I know this is nothing new

My old man used to pull that too

He kept his things in the other room

And the daylight goes away so soon

I've had my fill by the afternoon

So lets take a walk downtown

Well that's a problem of your own

You'll find a reason to stay at home

Tonight you're on your own

There's something that you wanna say

I'm not asking

As you sleep your nights away

While we go dancing toe to toe

(That's one thing I know)

Lets take a walk downtown

Lets take a walk

It turns me off just to hear you talk

You convinced me, it's not your fault

I know, 'cause I asked and you told me

So just say no

Oh, there's something that you wanna say

I'm not asking

As you sleep your nights away

While we go dancing

There's something that you wanna say

I'm not asking

'Cause you sleep your nights away

While we go dancing toe to toe
