My friends keep wanting to dance Knowing that I don't feel like it My heart's been broken enough And I can't forget about it They said dance darlin dance oh you know You only live once and you've gotta forget about it Dance darling dance oh you know A perfect way to fix your heart is to dance about it It's a party in my head I'm swimming through a crowd of faces And all of them were lifeless Then you manage to come along And lifted my sprits How did you get in my head I'm so glad that I am not alone He tells me don't panic and that I'm stronger than I've ever known They said dance darlin dance oh you know You only live once and you've gotta forget about it Dance darling dance oh you know A perfect way to fix your heart is to dance about it It's a party in my head
