Dancing lyrics

DANCING

by Carole King



I dance a little closer to you

and watch you dance away

Hard selling what we both know

tomorrow you may not be able to give away

And as I leave the stage

Dancing through my rage

I feel helpless as the music goes on,

and we turn another page



Dancing-everybody`s dancing

Moving through the ballet

Never missing a cue

How sad, but how beautiful it can be

To watch the choreography

As we play out our fantasy



Red hair flashing

under amber colored lights

You pirouette too smoothly

And you move around your ladies

And you fear of lonely nights

As you leap across the air

You`re so perfectly aware

Of your audience in rapt attention

As you hang suspended there



You do have a tender side

I can feel it, though you`ve always

tried to hide it from me

cause you know that I`m one woman

who`s strong enough to see you

As you`ve always been afraid to be



Dancing-everybody`s dancing
