You Were Dancing with Him, But Looking at Me

V5.5

[Intro]

The bar was alive, all whiskey and sweat,
Boots hittin’ the floor, no room for regret.
You spun through the crowd, his hands on your waist,
But your eyes locked on mine, put my heart in a chase. 
That jukebox wailed a slow, sultry tune,
Neon painted your face ‘neath a honky-tonk moon.
His grip held you close, but you weren’t playin’ fair,
Girl, you were dancin’ with him, but your soul was right here. 
You were dancin’ with him, but lookin’ at me,
Teasin’ my heart with that fire in your glee.
Every sway, every glance, sent a spark through the night,
You were his for the dance, but mine till the light.
Girl, you lit up this bar like a flame set free,
You were dancin’ with him, but lookin’ at me. 
Your hips moved like trouble, all rhythm and sin,
His boots kept the beat, but I knew I’d get in.
You tossed back your hair, let a slow smile unfold,
Burnin’ me up with a look that was bold. 
The fiddle cried low, but your eyes screamed my name,
Playin’ a dangerous, delicious game.
I leaned on the bar, sippin’ whiskey, playin’ cool,
But your stare was a hook, and I’m nobody’s fool. 
You were dancin’ with him, but lookin’ at me,
Teasin’ my heart with that fire in your glee.
Every sway, every glance, sent a spark through the night,
You were his for the dance, but mine till the light.
Girl, you lit up this bar like a flame set free,
You were dancin’ with him, but lookin’ at me. [Interlude] 
When the song finally faded, you slipped from his hold,
Strutted my way, all confident, bold.
You whispered, “Cowboy, let’s see what you’ve got,”
Now we’re dancin’ through sparks, and this night’s gettin’ hot. 
You were dancin’ with him, but lookin’ at me,
Teasin’ my heart with that fire in your glee.
Every sway, every glance, sent a spark through the night,
You were his for the dance, but mine till the light. 
Girl, you lit up this bar like a flame set free,
You were dancin’ with him, but lookin’ at me. [Interlude]
So here’s to the nights when eyes don’t play shy,
When a glance across the floor makes the temperature fly.
You left him behind, now it’s you and me,
You were dancin’ with him, but lookin’ at… Yeah, you were dancing with him……but looking at me! [Outro]
