So I Dance...

V5.5

Just me and the cold night… And the emptiness he left behind… But my body still remembers… How to leave the pain behind… Barefoot on the cold floor, midnight's closing in Shadows on the bedroom wall, don't know where to begin I put on the sad song, the one that makes me cry Started moving to the rhythm… just to keep from breaking The tears are still there, honey, sitting on my skin But something in this music… won't let sorrow win I can't call his name... no more Can't lie on that same cold floor But my heart remember something he could never take from me… *Myself* So I dance… through the hurt, through the sorrow Dance… 'til the grief lets me go, lets me go Maybe I'm not healed yet… maybe the sadness still shows But... oooh hoow... I'm moving, moving, moving Even through the hurt, through the sorrow I dance… in my bedroom, all alone Dance… 'til my feelings find their home He took my heart but he couldn't take my rhythm So I dance… I dance… I dance… Hair undone and tear-stained, dress still on from before I'm swaying with my heartbreak out here on the bedroom floor Every step and every turn, I'm shaking loose his ghost Dancing to the part of me that loved myself the most It ain't pretty, baby, it ain't clear or bright But it's mine… *Oooh... it's mine…* on this long lonely night I ain't free yet… no I won't lie Still got his memory wrapped around my mind But when I move… something loosens up inside Like the music knows the wounds I try to hide This ain't triumph… this is survival, slow and raw Just a woman and a bedroom and a blues she never asked for But she's dancing… *she's dancing…* Baby she's still dancing through it all So I dance… through the hurt, through the sorrow Dance… 'til the grief lets me go, lets me go Maybe I'm not healed yet… maybe the sadness still shows But... oooh hoow... I'm moving, moving, moving Even through the hurt, through the sorrow I dance… with the moonlight as my witness Dance… with the ache I can't outrun He may have broke the love but not the woman So I dance… I dance… *Oh how… I dance...* I dance… Still dancing… Still here… Still mine…
