Hundreds of pairs of eyes are on you As you rip the air right out of their lungs While you dance slowly and masterfully Beaming with passion and confidence You merge to become one with the music And gain 'oohs' and 'aahs' from beguiled girls Daydreaming and wishing you were theirs While your girlfriend spectates from a distance The spell is broken as soon as you stop To take a breath and take your bow You sent the coliseum into a stormy applause I found myself clapping along too Backstage, you take your girlfriend into your arms While I sit across you several feet away You being taken doesn't matter, it never will I'm too mesmerized by your dancing to even care

This One's For John (Again)
Hundreds of pairs of eyes are on you As you rip the air right out of their lungs While you dance slowly and masterfully Beaming with passion and confidence You merge to become one with the music And gain 'oohs' and 'aahs' from beguiled girls Daydreaming and wishing you were theirs While your girlfriend spectates from a distance The spell is broken as soon as you stop To take a breath and take your bow You sent the coliseum into a stormy applause I found myself clapping along too Backstage, you take your girlfriend into your arms While I sit across you several feet away You being taken doesn't matter, it never will I'm too mesmerized by your dancing to even care
I guess we're friends now, John. I just don't know how to feel about it.
