Back
I Should Have Been Dancing listen to a sample mp3 look at the score
listen to a sample mp3
I wasted my whole life
Messing up yours
When I should have been dancing
I was slamming the doors

I sulked in the spotlight
Wearing a frown
When I should have been dancing
I was putting you down

We could have been sensational
A couple of luminous stars
Could have been inspirational
When all the tomorrows were ours

I gave you a hard time
Fighting our wars
When I should have been dancing
I was settling scores
When I should have been making sense of my life
I was busy messing up yours
