"Dancing Without You" lyrics

You're so long gone, but you're in my heart
All my dreams have been torn apart
I wish I knew how to move on through the blue
Tattered threads all but cover me
Form a sweet, fractured tapestry
And they are my veil through the cold streets

Put on my make-up, a fashionable fool
Mascara running when I think of you
Tears are my sequins, they shine like diamonds when I move

Every night, every night
Memories coming alive, coming alive
My heartbreak, my couture
I'll keep on dancing without you
Every night, every night
I'll sway you out of my mind, out of my mind
My heartbreak, my couture
I'll keep on dancing without you

I'll keep on dancing without you

Now, to a stranger's eye
I'm a myth, I'm a butterfly
I swirl through the dark to the spotlight

Put on my make-up, and tailor my cool
Mascara running when I think you
Tears are my jewels, they shine like diamonds when I move

Every night, every night
Memories coming alive
Watching me style my heartbreak like couture
I'll keep on dancing without you
Every night, every night
I'll sway you out of my mind, push it aside
My heartbreak, my couture
I'll keep on dancing without you

My gown of thorns, I will endure
I strike a pose, though insecure
I'll keep on dancing without you
My heart breaks, so now my couture
A lonely girl without a cure
I'll keep on dancing
I'll keep on dancing without you
