A Place Like This Songtext
von Walking Papers

Her smile was an invitation to start a conversation
So I moved in closer wearing too much cologne
I asked her if she came here often or if she might like a drink
Said I think we should find someplace where we can be alone

She said I must be going
So I grabbed her by the wrist
And said what′s a girl like you doing alone in a place like this?


I desired her attention so I decided I should mention
That if she felt like dancing, well there was room on the floor
I said let's spend some time together, let′s get to know each other
I felt like maybe we've met someplace before

A more fabulous dancer did not exist
So I asked her what she's doing alone in a place like this

I longed for a connection, I spun her in all directions
And feeling light on her feet is what she enjoys the most
While admiring her complexion, I came across my lonely reflection
And I realized that I had been dancing
Not with a woman but with a ghost


So I pulled myself together, hoping no one noticed
What′s a guy like me doing dancing alone in a place like this?
Alone in a place like this
Alone in a place like this
