I Don't Wanna Dance Songtext
von Split Enz

I don′t wanna dance no more
Not since you walked out the door
Left without a second glance
That's the end of my romance
No more fancy footwork in the nightclub
I′m a still point in a turning world

I don't wanna dance tonight
I can hardly stand the sight
Of lovers moving on the floor
There's a memory I can′t ignore
Of listening to the D.J. play the record
Take your partner and move around
And I′m dancing in my baby's arms again

I don′t wanna dance
(Not without my baby)
I don't wanna dance
(Not without my baby)
I don′t wanna dance


Every night it's always there
The memory of our sad affair
I′m underneath the coloured lights
You're asking me am I alright
I can only answer "I'm the dancer"
Whose sense of rhythm is paralyzed
′Til I′m dancing in my baby's arms again

I don′t wanna dance
(Not without my baby)
I don't wanna dance
(Not without my sweetheart)
I don′t wanna dance
Not tonight
Not tonight

(Not without my baby)
(Not without my baby)
I don't wanna dance
(Not without my baby)
I don′t wanna dance
(Not without my sweetheart)
I don't wanna dance tonight


(I don't wanna dance)
I don′t wanna dance
(Not without my sweetheart)
I don′t wanna dance
Not tonight
Not tonight
Not tonight, oh, oh-oh
