Song Lyrics

I wasn't looking for another lover
I didn't need another long lost friend
I know that feelin' when I start to fall
For the same games
And the same pain again
All I wanted was my moment in your deep blue eyes
All I needed was a minute now I feel like I could die

[Chorus]
Can we dance
Is it safe to take a chance
Can we move
Like we've got nothing to lose
Can we touch
Like it don't mean all that much
Cause it'd be easier to say goodbye
And never have to wonder why
All we have to do is lie and dance

I made a promise that I'd just forget you
I swore I'd never even say your name
And I knew that if you let me spend one night
That my whole life would change

I was hopin' you'd be open to a walk in the rain
Now you're leavin' and it's feelin' like you're drivin' me insane

[Chorus]

Dance across a crowded room
The flashing lights go round
The band goes boom
Like a bullet through my heart
You know you killed me from the start
And now it's tearing me apart

Can we dance, is it safe to take a chance
Can we move, can we move, like we've got nothing to lose
Can we touch like it don't mean all that much
Can we dance, is it safe to take a chance
Can we move, can we move, like we've got nothing to lose
Can we touch like it don't mean all that much
