Now I,
I liked the way you Dance so Lonely,
And I liked the way you stood your ground.
An' sometimes they judged this boy so lonely.
But then you could see he stood his ground.
Now I,
I walked behind you to see your shuffle step
An' you're a down dealer holdin' your georgette
An' in that golden hour
Before you found your queen
Did you think that hand would give you a life,
A life you could redeem?
A life that you could redeem.
The nights that you'd never see.
The life that you would redeem.
The nights that you'd never see.
Now I,
I liked the way you Dance so Lonely,
And I liked the way you stood your ground.
An' sometimes you judged this boy so lonely.
But then you could see he stood his ground.
But then you could see he stood his ground.
To a life that you'd never see.
A life that you could redeem.
A life that you'd never see.
A life that you could redeem
The nights that you 'd never see.
