So you're dancing into the night Lost most everything you own with the last light So you're dancing, and nobody cares Are these people that you know becoming self-aware? You'll make resolutions that you cannot keep You'll drink too much and you'll probably weep But it won't be long It won't be long No you don't own your money you don't own the beat But you own your heart and those two left feet But it won't be long Yeah it won't be long Oh my darling, don't wait to reply That boy is biting off his lip to be denied He'll go fighting, he'll probably die With the boys filled with joy 'cause They've crushed some toys with their might Go take the one friend you can just about stand Put your cold old heart in their open hands But it won't be long No it won't be long You've spent days and nights trying find your brand You've been telling jokes that you just can't land But it won't be long Yeah it won't be long Just keep dancing into the night Will I never ever see the sunlight Oh I'll call you a cab, get you something to eat If you promise me you won't go to sleep 'Cause it won't be long No it won't be long The year was long, the longest yet The countdown will begin again You feel like shit, but don't regret The countdown will begin again 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 No it won't be long No it won't be long
