you and me we’re dancing to an old song in the past
the lights are going out and going out fast
we’re the only people here making it last
everybody’s working while we’re stomping on the cracks
swing me around again, darlin
on a checkered dancin floor
swing me around again
well I’m tired, but I want more
we’re just getting started and dear god you’re a sight
everybody’s wathing, but we’re not part of this night
swing me around again, darlin
on a checkered dancin floor
swing me around again
well I’m tired, but I want more
we could pour this out in a glass
we could bottle it up and make it last
we could give ourselves one last chance
we could give ourselves one last dance
…one last dance
the walls are closing in as i dip you to the ground
your hair mingling there with the footsteps and the sound
of everyone who’s ever danced at the end of the night
and we’re dancing our hearts out as they turn out the lights
swing me around again, darlin
on a checkered dancin floor
swing me around again
well I’m tired, but I want more
we could pour this out in a glass
we could bottle it up and make it last
we could give ourselves one last chance
we could give ourselves one last dance
…one last dance
