Lyrics
DANCING THROUGH MY MIND
Words and Music©Paul Nash 2017
Verse 1
You come dancing through my mind
Just when I was sure
You had closed the door
For -ever
Seems love is hard to leave behind
It's returning
And I'm learning,
Memory can be unkind.
Verse 2
When you haunt me in my dreams
That's what hurts the most
Waking with a ghost
Beside me;
Hope like deceiving moonlight gleams
But my heart knows
Back in the shadows
Darkness is what it seems.
Middle 8
But as the days go by
I can't say that last goodbye
And then baby,
Verse 3
Into the same old trap I fall
Coming back for more
Letting my hopes soar
Like bubbles
Then I'll make a foolish call -
They don't last now
I'm in the past now
Hearing a silent wall.
Verse 4
You come dancing through my mind
And again I'm sure
That I love you more
Than ever;
You dance but I am driving blind
Heading nowhere,
Why I must go there
Isn't so hard to find.
And as the days go by
I can't say that last goodbye
Because baby ...
