"Dancing Days" lyrics
Young man with a stone to throw
Take a breath and just let it go
Angry man with a cross to bear
Now you see life just isn't fair
Oh let go
Greater men have had their day to face the music
Realise you've made your bed
Read what the papers say
Your dancing days are over
The smile on your face will never hide your shame
You can't escape what they say
Your dancing days are over
The ghosts you see are shouting out your name
Oh how you danced
Oh how you sang
There is a feeling here that you began
Oh how we stood and stared
Held on to every breath
It seemed the world stood still
Transfixed by every step
Oh let go
Lesser men will be your crowd
Captivation
Lesser men will tear you down
Read what the papers say
Your dancing days are over
The smile on your face will never hide your shame
You can't escape what they say
Your dancing days are over
The ghosts you see are shouting out your name
The ghosts you see are shouting out your name
Fake crowds demand us not to blame
Any man that celebrates his pain
So glad to be a witness to your fame
Old man sings his final song
And wonders where it all went wrong
Read what the papers say
Your dancing days are over
The smile on your face will never hide your shame
You can't escape what they say
Your dancing days are over
The ghosts you see are shouting out your name
Read what the papers say
Your dancing days are over
The smile on your face will never hide your shame
You can't escape what they say
Your dancing days are over
The ghosts you see are shouting out your name
The ghosts you see are shouting out your name
So glad to be a witness to your fame
Take a breath and just let it go
Angry man with a cross to bear
Now you see life just isn't fair
Oh let go
Greater men have had their day to face the music
Realise you've made your bed
Read what the papers say
Your dancing days are over
The smile on your face will never hide your shame
You can't escape what they say
Your dancing days are over
The ghosts you see are shouting out your name
Oh how you danced
Oh how you sang
There is a feeling here that you began
Oh how we stood and stared
Held on to every breath
It seemed the world stood still
Transfixed by every step
Oh let go
Lesser men will be your crowd
Captivation
Lesser men will tear you down
Read what the papers say
Your dancing days are over
The smile on your face will never hide your shame
You can't escape what they say
Your dancing days are over
The ghosts you see are shouting out your name
The ghosts you see are shouting out your name
Fake crowds demand us not to blame
Any man that celebrates his pain
So glad to be a witness to your fame
Old man sings his final song
And wonders where it all went wrong
Read what the papers say
Your dancing days are over
The smile on your face will never hide your shame
You can't escape what they say
Your dancing days are over
The ghosts you see are shouting out your name
Read what the papers say
Your dancing days are over
The smile on your face will never hide your shame
You can't escape what they say
Your dancing days are over
The ghosts you see are shouting out your name
The ghosts you see are shouting out your name
So glad to be a witness to your fame
