lyrics

THE DANCER
(Björn Håkansson & Tim Arnold Norell)

Verse 1
It was a simple story of provocation
No claim of fame no glory
Just aggravation

Pre Chorus 1
That might be an answer fading away
Running like a shadow wanting to stay
Oh, It was a simple story

Chorus
Burning hot and learning, when you tip toe cross the floor
It’s hard to face the music
When the dancer you have loved walks out the door
Burning hot and learning, like a frozen picture frame
No one else can help me stop the pain

Verse 2
There’s not a hint of Kristy, no investigation
At times my mind goes misty, to much sedation

Pre Chorus 2
All that midnight phantoms sharing my bed
Mmm, Mixing up the reasons inside my head
Oh-oh, It was a simple story

Chorus 2
Burning hot and learning, when you tip toe cross the floor
It’s hard to face the music
When the dancer you have loved walks out the door
Burning hot and learning
Like a frozen picture frame
No one else can help me stop the pain
