Song Description

A song about a girl leading me on a merry dance.

Lyrics

I said to my girl, I can't take too much more
It seems as though you're always walking out the door
But when you're here you tell me lies
It's something that you can't disguise.
Don't deny you know as well as I you're leading me a merry dance
Tell me what you've got to say
Tell me what it's all about or pack your things and get on out
I don't want you leading me a merry dance.
Leading me, no.. leading me...

She said it looks like we're breaking up again
But this time there's no chance of making up again
I can tell it's in your eyes it's something I can recognise
Then she put her head in her hands and said
'What ever happened to our plans? I always thought they stood a chance.'
I should have known I'd do better on my own
Instead of you leading me a merry dance.

All night her words were drowned in tears of rain
Alright I'll give you one more chance again
I'll let you have your own way again.

She said 'I'm sorry for messing you about
But I think it would be best if I got out
'Cos I've found me someone else
Who cares for me like no one else.'
Then she said 'I can no longer stay
The rent is owing anyway.
There's nothing left for us to say.'
Then she just got up and went
With all my records and my tent
Saying that she'd write to me from France
There I was all on my own with just the bill for the telephone
Wishing she had kept me on a merry dance
Kept me on....oh kept me on.
