lyrics

He asks for my hand to see if I’d like to dance
From across the room I can feel the fingertips in his glance
I can say no, but what good would it do
To sit across the room and stare at you

So we do the dance
It comes in twos
One by one
Nothing to lose
I tried to wash the stain off of my skin
But my blood ran crimson before the dance did begin

He wraps his hands gently around my hips
I’m reeling - the feeling - his tall tales grace my lips
Burning desire, his flames but my fire, pirouettes across the night sky
His insatiable act for leading, I don’t know why

Chorus

So we do the dance
It comes in twos
Round and round
Nothing to lose
I tried to wash the stain off of my skin
But his blood ran crimson before the dance did begin

I feel his every breath as he draws me in
Whispers the softest, sweetest as candy sin
But I knew it was comin’ when I took the chance
He didn’t want love, he wanted romance
He didn’t want love, he just wanted the dance
