With every dancing circle over these so many years
A polka in the moonlight
A samba in the rear

Reflections in the spotlight wrap around your hopes and dreams
Moments of reminder
Sown into your seam

I understand you’re skeptical of another flagrant tear
For you’ve seen so many falling
You mop them with your fears

But that ain’t me babe
You shouldn’t look at me the way you do

Lifeless is the living of a dream you fly alone
Broken wings now fallow
That single bird has flown

Passion is a vacuum draining every morsel dry
Refuse in the hopper
That’s just part of life

Now you say you’re leaving running from a purple eye
Wishing it is easy
Living it a lie

But that ain’t me babe
You shouldn’t look at me the way you do
