"You Used To Love To Dance" lyrics


(M. Etheridge)

Lying in a city night 
A million fingers tingling my skin
Out there in the sea tonight 
I thought I saw you clutching your sin 
You rolled me over long ago 
And told me you were strong enough to go 
You needed more than this lover's dream 
You need the steel and the concrete beams in your life 
In your life 

chorus
We laughed and drank in the jukebox light 
And we tore the rug in that downtown dive
Every Saturday night For fifty cents we'd dance all night long 
And each new tune we said that's our song 
Oh it felt so right
Well ecstasy ain't free 
But compromise is chance 
I remember how 
You used to love to dance 

They told me you have found your love 
You moved in locked up and put out your blues
Well all God's children got to grow up
And play house make vows to hang up their shoes 
Do you sit and talk over coffee cups
Do headline mornings satisfy and fill you up 
I kept your eyes and your cigarette kiss
You couldn't keep the lies the adrenalin bliss in your life
In your life 

chorus

I'm gonna go out tonight
I'm gonna drive up to the hill 
I'm gonna dive on into those city lights
And I'm gonna dance, dance
Dance till I get my fill

chorus
