[Verse 1] Some people's dances last forever, Two hearts moving in perfect time, I thought we'd be that kind of story, Your hand in mine, your heart in mine. But somewhere we missed the rhythm, Somewhere the music changed its tune, I kept waiting for you to turn back, But you were already dancing without me. [Pre-Chorus] And I don't understand why we couldn't last, Why something so beautiful became the past, But maybe every song has an ending too, And maybe mine was never meant to be with you. [Chorus] So I'll learn the dance without you, Even if my feet still stumble when I try, I'll spin through all the memories, With your shadow fading from my mind. I see you dancing with another girl, And it hurts, but I'm glad you're happy now, Some people's dances last forever, Ours just taught me how to dance without you. [Post-Chorus] Oh-oh, I'll learn the moves, Oh-oh, I'll make it through, Even if the music sounds like you, I'll learn the dance without you. [Verse 2] I still remember how you held me, Like the night would never have to end, We were laughing under neon lights, I thought I'd found my forever then. Now you're moving with somebody else, And I'm watching from across the room, I could hate the way the story changed, But I won't hate the happiness I see in you. [Pre-Chorus] Maybe love isn't always staying, Maybe sometimes letting go is love, And even though I wanted forever, Forever wasn't written for us. [Chorus] So I'll learn the dance without you, Even if my feet still stumble when I try, I'll spin through all the memories, With your shadow fading from my mind. I see you dancing with another girl, And it hurts, but I'm glad you're happy now, Some people's dances last forever, Ours just taught me how to dance without you. [Bridge — stripped back] Maybe I'll find somebody someday, Who won't let go when the music slows, Someone who'll stay through every rhythm, Someone who'll never leave me dancing alone. And when that song finally finds me, I won't be scared to take the chance, Because losing you didn't end my story— It just taught me my next dance. [Final Chorus — huge, emotional] So I'll learn the dance without you, Let the tears fall underneath the lights, I'll turn the heartbreak into something beautiful, And keep on moving through the night. I see you dancing with another girl, And somehow I can finally breathe somehow, Some people's dances last forever, But ours was never meant to be forever now. [Outro] I'll miss the way we moved together, But I won't beg the music to rewind, You found your dance, I'll find mine… And maybe someday I'll love again, Without wishing you were by my side. Some people's dances last forever… Ours taught me how to dance alone.
