Dance and Sing

Lyrics for Dance and Sing

Got to keep on going like it ain't the end Got to change like your life is depending on it It's a long time coming and we're taking it in What a wild ruse See the cold moon hanging like the pennant above Too many ice cream socials with the promise ring love Had to shoot all the targets at the carnival 'cause You needed hard proof I read God is dead, I shed some tears for him But I swear on his grave I'll never do it again And I screamed when I realized what was happening That I had good news I'll grieve What I have lost Forgive the firing squad How imperfect life can be Now all I can do Is just dance on through See the Coast Guard coming Save the drowning men Out by Catalina Island, they abandoned ship All the news trucks piled up with starts and fits Coming from Point Dume It's the last ditch effort Makes no sense to try Put more gas on the tires Put more wood on the fire Warm your hands up, 'cause we'll probably be here a while If you want the honest truth Don't turn Your cheek away Please don't resuscitate Make an example out of me 'Cause all I can do Is just dance on through And sing Got a diamond cold heart And I've got it in spades With the Walkman fading like an audio slave It's a self-induced seizure like a kid at a rave Smeared in Day-Glo paint And all the popular prophets Want to take me to task Well it's just your opinion So I'd rather not ask But I got me a cane And I'm spinning it fast As the band plays Don't read My worried mind That smoking gun Passing through time I'm yours You can decide What fate I'll have On the firing line 'Cause now all I can do Is just dance on through And sing With every note there is With every note there was Each passing chord There was only love With every step there is With every step that was Spinning around There was only love Only love, only love It was a slow dance for us There was only love
