Verse 1: | |
Raised with a bible in your hand | |
You met your parents' strict demands | |
But now that sweet religious child | |
Is like a hurricane gone wild | |
Chorus: | |
And you're dancing | |
Dancing with danger | |
Lies from a stranger | |
Waltz inside your head | |
(oh) you've got your back to | |
The one who really loves you | |
But you can't stop because you | |
Can't see what's ahead | |
Verse 2: | |
No liquor and no cigarettes | |
Are rules you're learning to forget | |
But it's not so much the outward part | |
'cause god is looking at your heart | |
Repeat chorus | |
Instrumental | |
Verse 3: | |
You've danced yourself out on a ledge | |
Your dreams are falling off the edge | |
God never wanted it that way | |
He wants to shake your fears away | |
Repeat chorus (twice) |
