Dancing Lyrics

And if she came to meet me I can't believe it's true
she smiles so discreetly
reminding me of you

It's autumn and it's raining
an ordinary day
she wears a silver raincoat
and I'm dressed all in grey

And I could take her dancing
but I don't like to dance
My life reads like a book now
a harlequin romance
The edges hold together
the center falls flat
I can't blame it on the weather
my heart's not an acrobat

We're walking arm in arm now
her silver on my grey
I'm noticing her charm now
but I don't know what to say

She wants to look inside me
she wants to see within
she's standing there beside me
but I won't let her in

And I could take her dancing
but I don't like to dance
My life reads like a book now
a harlequin romance
The edges hold together
the center falls flat
I can't blame it on the weather
my heart's not an acrobat

The autumn leaves are falling
the streets are paved with gold
From time to time I hear you calling
still I do as I am told

And if she came to meet me
I can't believe it's true
She smiles so discreetly
and I try not to think of you

And I could take her dancing
but I don't like to dance
But if I don't ask her now
I might nog have another chance
The edges hold together
the center falls flat
Can't blame it ont he weather
my heart's not an acrobat
