This Is Me Dancing Lyrics

When I saw you standing
it sorta made me
not wanna stand alone,
but under your bright lights, baby
then I saw you dancing
it sorta shook me
I never dance,
I swore it off years ago

When I saw you standing
it sorta made me
not wanna stand alone,
but under your bright lights, baby
then I saw you dancing
it really shook me
I feel so sure,
I'd only do this for you

I'll dance with you
even if I look so ridiculous
I don't care, I used to care
I just need to get over myself
I'll dance with you
even if I look so strange
I don't care, I used to care
when I tried to be someone else

Then I watched you yawning
it made me sleepy
we always sleep too much
I wanna wake up on the phone

You move more than I would want to
goddamn, I will do it for you
I know
I'll wait here for you

(…was it really what we made it seem to be?)

I'll dance with you
even if I look so ridiculous
I don't care, I used to care
I just need to get over myself
I'll dance with you
even if I look so strange
I don't care, I used to care
when I tried to be someone else

When I saw you standing 
it sorta made me  
not wanna stand alone, 
but under your bright lights, baby 
then I saw you dancing 
it sorta shook me 
I never dance,  
I swore it off years ago 
 
When I saw you standing 
it sorta made me 
not wanna stand alone, 
but under your bright lights, baby 
then I saw you dancing 
it really shook me 
I feel so sure, 
I'd only do this for you 
 
I'll dance with you 
even if I look so ridiculous 
I don't care, I used to care 
I just need to get over myself 
I'll dance with you 
even if I look so strange 
I don't care, I used to care 
when I tried to be someone else 
 
Then I watched you yawning 
it made me sleepy 
we always sleep too much 
I wanna wake up on the phone 
 
You move more than I would want to 
goddamn, I will do it for you

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
