Lonely Dance

When I was younger, I didn't know my dance
So I copied others when I got the chance
But after going to college
To finally get some knowledge on myself
I started to do my own dance
People came and they saw me dance
And they started dancing along
But when I found my own beat
Now it seems I'm dancing on my own
And that's totally fine

I'll be over here doin' my lonely dance
Doin' my lonely dance
Doin' my lonely dance
I'll be over here doin' my lonely dance
Doin' my lonely dance
Doin' my lonely dance
'Cause at least I know it's mine

Giving yourself away is not the way
To do your dance
You've got to do some introspection
Do some listenin' to your heart
Then you've a start
It's like when you go camping and you see some tents that look like yours
And you end up having an argument over space and you end up going and camping on your own
Then you feel alone
You look up to the sky and you see some stars
Since there's no body with you
Those stars are yours

I'll be over here doin' my lonely dance
Doin' my lonely dance
Doin' my lonely dance
I'll be over here doin' my lonely dance
Doin' my lonely dance
Doin' my lonely dance
'Cause at least I know it's mine

And then the moment strikes
Somebody that you like will
See your dance and want to join
They're doing their own dance
It matches your beat so
Let's keep on dancin' and make this world complete

Everybody dance, everybody dance
Everybody dance, everybody dance
Everybody dance, everybody dance
Everybody dance

Keep dancin' your own dance 'cause your dance is fine
