Dancing in the Dark Songtext
von Sarah McLeod

I get up in the evening
And I ain′t got nothing to say
I come home in the morning
I go to bed feeling the same way

Hey, ain't nothing but tired
Man, I′m just tired and bored with myself
Hey there, baby, oh-oh
I could use just a little help

Can't start a fire
You can't start a fire without a spark
This gun′s for hire
Even if we′re just dancing in the dark

Messages keep getting clearer
Radio's on, I′m moving around the place
I check my look in the mirror
Want to change my clothes, my hair, my face


Man, I ain't getting nowhere, oh-oh
I′m just living in a dump like this
There's something happening somewhere
Baby, I just know that there is

Can′t start a fire
You can't start a fire without a spark
This gun's for hire
Even if we′re just dancing in the dark

Yeah, you sit around getting older
There′s a joke somewhere and it's on me
I′ll shake this world off of my shoulders
Come on, babe, this laugh's on me

Stay on the streets of this town
And they′ll be carving you up, alright
They say you gotta stay hungry, oh-oh
Hey baby, I'm just about starving tonight

I′m dying for some action, action, yeah
I'm sick of sitting 'round here, trying to write this book
I need a love reaction, oh-oh
Come on, baby, give me just one look


Can′t start a fire
Sitting ′round crying over a broken heart
Can't start a fire
Worrying about your little world falling apart

You can′t start a fire
You can't start a fire without a spark
This gun′s for hire
Even if we're just dancing in the dark

This gun′s for hire
This gun's for hire
This gun's for hire
This gun′s for hire
This gun′s for hire
This gun's for hire
This gun′s for hire
This gun's for hire

Even if we′re just dancing in the dark

This gun's for hire
This gun′s for hire
This gun's for hire

Hey baby, just dancing in the dark

Hey baby, just dancing in the dark
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
