The Dancer Songtext
von Peter Godwin

Across a darkened room you come with me
There′s nothing we can do or say
I love the way you move inside of me
My life's a tango and a sway

Whatever we do, whatever we say
Everything seems to entrance her
Maybe it′s 'cause she's fallen for the dancer

Our bodies are controlled by saboteurs
We know the rhythm they enjoy
We twist around, around and dream of words
And all we love is just a toy
Raging and scratching until we tear it all to shreds
We could be lovers and kiss across another bed


Whatever we do, whatever we say
Everything seems to entrance her
I wonder why she′s fallen for the dancer

This dance is endless, falling to the floor
(With the romance and the pain)
With the romance and the pain
(How come I am never tired of you?)
How come I am never tired of you?
(I′m even dancing in the rain)
I'm even dancing in the rain

Sometimes I throw it all away or spill it in the sheets
We could be lovers and make a pact that one of us will cheat

Whatever you want, whatever you see
Everything seems to entrance her
Maybe it′s 'cause she′s fallen for the dancer
