Melissa Etheridge - Dance Without Sleeping Lyrics

Melissa Etheridge Lyrics

"Dance Without Sleeping"

I don't want to talk about it
I've done enough, I think
I don't want to spend more money
I don't want another drink
I would scratch out all the images
If I had the chance
Don't ask me what I'm thinking
Can't you see? I only want to

Dance without sleeping
I'll dance without fear
Dance without senses
No message I hear
I'll dance without sleeping
Dance 'til I'm numb
Dance 'til I think
I can overcome

Walking on the edge of
Rage and understanding
Between the black and the white
This child is so angry
Alone here tonight
Alarming desperation leads me to believe
With all my shields and protection
It's only me I deceive

Dance without sleeping
I'll Dance without fear
Dance without senses
No message I hear
Dance without sleeping
I'll dance 'til I'm numb
Dance 'til I think
I can overcome

The eyes on a magazine
The voice on the radio
The kiss on the movie screen
This is the story I know
Fathers hold on and they never go
Mothers hold on and they never go
Lovers hold on and they never go
Lovers, they come and they never go

Dance without sleeping
I'll dance without fear
Dance without senses
No message I hear
Dance without sleeping
I'll dance 'til I'm numb
Dance 'til I think
I can overcome

Dance without sleeping
I'll dance without fear
Dance without senses
No message I hear
Dance without sleeping
I'll dance 'til I'm numb
Dance 'til I think
I can overcome
