Dance To A Different Song Poem by Peter Strugnell

I know you told me, right from the start,
you were no good, you breaker of hearts,
I should have listened, boy was I dumb,
no sooner was it said..... no sooner was it done

and I can't believe it,fell for you,
the very thing that, I didn't want to do,
go back to the city, don't bother to phone,
just leave me in peace....just leave me alone

so get up and dance, like there's no tomorrow,
dance towards the light, dance away your sorrow,
you're so much better, now that she's gone,
so get up and dance, to a different..... song.

It really ain't easy, when you look this fine,
I howl at the moon, how I wish you were mine,
but I'm not doing this, not waiting my turn,
yet jealousy stings.... and jealousy burns.

so get up and dance, like there's no tomorrow,
dance towards the light, dance away your sorrow,
you're so much better, now that she's gone,
so get up and dance, to a different..... song.

I've been naive, I thought you were true,
you let me down, and I trusted you,
and all this time, you danced for another,
I've had enough....I'm sending you back to your mother.

so get up and dance, like there's no tomorrow,
dance towards the light, dance away your sorrow,
you're so much better, now that she's gone,
so get up and dance, to a different..... song.
