Dancing Days Lyrics by Arlo McKinley

The Mess We’re In

0

[Verse 1]
If I can’t have this dance with you
Then I think my dancing days are through
Cause I have wasted so much time
On hearts I knew that never would be mine

[Chorus]
I just want to need somebody
I just want to leave my name
And now I know that nothing is forever
And no one leaves
As perfect as they came

[Verse 2]
They don’t know who I am now
They only know the things that I have done
But no one wants to talk it out
Cause they’re scared to death
Of what we might become

[Chorus]
I just want to need somebody
I just want to lеave my name
Now I know that nothing is forevеr
And no one leaves
As perfect as they came

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
I just want to need somebody
I just want to leave my name
Now I know that nothing is forever
And no one leaves
As perfect as they came

[Outro]
And none of us leave
As perfect as we came
