Dance the Night Away Lyrics

I smoke a cigarette while waiting in your bath
And I wait for you for an hour and a half
And I look out the window where the clouds fall down in rain
And I look across the river where they dance the night away

I smoke a cigarette while waiting in your bath
And I wait for you for an hour and a half
And I look out the window where the sky falls down in rain
And I look across the river where they dance the night away

Dance the night away
Dance the night away without me
Dance the night away
Dance the night away

I smoke a cigarette while I wait in your bath
And I wait alone for you an hour and a half
And I look out the window where the sky falls down in rain
And I look across the river where they dance the night away

Dance the night away
Dance the night away without me
Dance the night away
Dance the night away
Dance the night away, yeah
Dance the night away

For what would have been a throw-away demo, I get this song stuck in my head often enough...everytime I have a cigarette while waiting for someone. Beautiful job of capturing a moment in time.
