music and lyrics by jo davidson
He said let's go out for drinks
And we'll talk some business
I was young I didn't think
and the next thing I knew
I was driving his Rolls Royce
trying to keep him off my dress
I'd never been in a Rolls Royce
but I wasn't impressed
Can't you tell
I don't dance well
no I don't dance oh I don't dance no
I don't dance well
I kept bringing up his wife
and I told him I went to church
he said oh that's very nice
then the waiter brought our food
I was hungry so I ate
then I said it's getting late
and I wish you'd take me home
but he wanted to dance
Can't you tell
I don't dance well
I don't dance oh I don't dance
oh I don't dance well
when I hate the music
when I hate the song
turn off the radio-awhoa-awhoa
I was fired soon after (bummer)
And my boyfriend was so mad
I collected my two weeks pay
and that was the end of that
can't you tell I don't dance well
I don't dance oh I don't dance oh I don't dance well
when I hate the music
when I hate the song
turn off the radio-awhoa-awhoa
cause I don't dance
for just anyone.Your rain falls like crazy fingers
Peals of fragile thunder keeping time
Recall the days that still are to come some sing blue.
Hang your heart on laughing willow stray
Down to the water, deep sea of love
beneath the sweet calm face of the sea swift undertow.
Life may be sweeter for this, I don't know,
See how it feels in the end.
May Lady Lullaby sing plainly for you soft, strong, sweet and true.
Cloud hands reaching from a rainbow tapping at the window, touch your hair
So swift and bright strange figures of light float in air.
Who can stop what must arrive now? Something new is waiting to be born
Dark as the night you're still by my side shine inside .
Gone are the days we stopped to decide where we should go, we just ride.
Gone are the broken eyes we saw through in dreams gone, both dream and lie.
Life may be sweeter for this, I don't know,
Feels like it might be all right,
While Lady Lullaby sings plainly through you Love still rings true.
Never could reach it, just slips away but I try.
