Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Your face in the corner
Like some statue of gold
I want you to walk home
I want you to hold
[Verse 2]
But I'm scared to dance
Said I'm scared to dance
Well, I'm scared to dance
[Verse 3]
Well, I've seen you before girl
And I've held your wrist
But I can't jive, girl
No, I cannot twist
[Verse 4]
But I'm scared to dance
Said I'm scared to dance
Well, I'm scared to dance
[Verse 5]
So now I walk behind you
And you a don't hear
Until I'm right beside you
Until you bleed, ha hee ha ha ha
[Verse 6]
Well, I'm scared to dance
Said I'm scared to dance
Well, I'm scared to dance
