Thom Monahan - Don't Watch Me Dancing lyrics

Margarida has a strange appeal Sways between suitors on a broken heel Of course, her desires they always mistook She'd rather been scarred than be scarred with love In conversation she often contend Costumes built customs that involved dead ends She found her courage in a change of scene This Sunday-social would be short its queen All her best years spent distracted By these tired reenactments With the right steps She will try her chances Somewhere else There he is a step out her view Reciting the words he hoped she might pursue Night upon night a faithful light at shore If he'd only convince his legs across the floor Please don't watch me dancing Oh no Don't watch me dancing Something changes when she glances Enough to teach you what romance is With the right steps they could try their chances Somewhere else Please don't watch me dancing Don't watch me dancing Please don't watch me dancing Don't watch me dancing ....
