Time slips by into an empty cup
It's passing by it's filling up
A day went by that I loved her
To the wind I threw all caution
Believing that I knew her
I sunk my world into her now
And here I go again
Standing here on my own
Yeah here I go again
Dancing life's dance alone
Don't want to dance alone
Does true love make you immortal?
The feeling swells as you plunge deep within her
Sealing words in a whisper
How loud we scream when our bodies are in motion
You're damned when you give up your wants
I said you're damned when you give up your dreams
I said you're damned when you give all your trust
And she's not right there standing next to me
I said here I go again
Standing here on my own
Yeah here I go again
Dancing life's dance alone
Oh want to tell you bout it
Here I go again
Standing here on my own
Yeah here I go again
Dancing life dance alone
Don't want to dance alone
Don't want to dance alone I feel naked and empowered
Don't want to dance alone I said naked and devoured
Damn' waking from a dream of this lady
And now I see things that remind me
I'd rather die than pay for affection
A piece of nothing is not what I live for
Damn' I can finally see why you're leaving
Everything you ever did had a reason
And now the reason's clear
You amaze me
I still believe in love
Don't want to dance alone
Don't want to dance alone
The final slap I've awaken
To the truth I wish I had listened
By love's bright light I was blinded
But now I see cause my eyes are wide open
We're better off saying goodbye
I know we're better off saying goodbye
I think we're better off saying goodbye
I know we're better off saying goodbye
I'd rather dance alone
