What was I supposed to do
Act unkind? Be so cruel?
Well, that's not me
I was happy, that's the truth
Spinning 'round, Stevie on
Kissing in the photo booth

Well, I took the pictures out my wallet
But they're still in my room
I was so sad I had to call it
Then you pressed on the bruise
You said

We were just dancing
(We were just dancing)
We were just dancing
Yeah, that's what you said
And it won't get out of my head
We were just dancing
(We were just dancing)
How is this happening?
Yeah, that's what you said
Oh, we werе just dancing

It's the hardest thing to do
Not the tеars, not the wound
Just to love without a way to see it through
But I can't, nor can you, baby

But we could be dancing
(We could be dancing)
We could be dancing
I said what I said
But I'd rather be dancing instead
We could be dancing
(We could be dancing)
Feeling romantic
Instead of this dread
Oh, we could be dancing

Do you think it was easy for me
To leave your love behind?
Do you think that I wanted to lose
The best thing in my life?

We were just dancing
(We were just dancing)
We were just dancing
Then I made this mess
Oh, we should be dancing instead
We were just dancing
(We were just dancing)
We were just dancing
Yeah, that's what you said
And it still rings out in my head
Oh, it still rings out in my head
