Dancing Days

James Blunt · Other Songs - James Blunt

Young man with a stone to throw Take a breath and just let

it go Angry man with a cross to bare Now you seem

life just isn't fair Oh, let it go Cos, you wake up

in happy days Face the music In your eyes

you've made your bed Read what the papers say

Your dancing days are over The smile on your face

will never hide your shame You can't escape what they

say Your dancing days are over The ghosts you see

are shouting out your name Oh how you danced Oh how

you sang There's a feeling here that you

began Oh how you stood and stared Held onto every

breath It seemed the world stood still Transfixed by

every step Oh, let it go Cos a lesser man

would be your crowd Captivation, lesser men will tear you

down Read what the papers say Your dancing

days are over The smile on your face will never hide your

shame You can't escape what they say Your

dancing days are over The ghosts you see are shouting out

your name The ghosts you see are shouting out your

name The very crowd demand it's not to blame The demi

man celebrates his pain So glad to be with him

through your pain Old man sings his final song And

wonders where it all went wrong Read what the

papers say Your dancing days are over The smile on

your face will never hide your shame You can't escape

what they say Your dancing days are over The ghosts

you see are shouting out your name Read what the

papers say Your dancing days are over The smile on

your face will never hide your shame You can't escape

what they say Your dancing days are over The ghosts

you see are shouting out your name The ghosts you

see are shouting out your name The very crowd demands

it's not to blame The demi man celebrates his pain

So glad to be with us through your pain
