Dancing All Around It - Charles Esten

Silverwear on the champagne glass

They call our name

DJ playing that old song

By Eddie James

All the lights down low

On the hotel banquet hall

But we were shining like diamonds

Underneath that mirror ball

Surrounded by everybody we knew

But all we saw was me and you

Pretty soon that whole room was ours

When we were dancing all around it

Lost in each other for so long

We didn’t know this

We kept holding on

Even though the song was gone

It’s all right there in the photo album

That we made

I guess pictures aren’t the only things

That fade

I wish we could’ve stayed forever

And owned that floor

But we’re not the people in those pictures

Anymore

We’d say «I love you»

And kiss goodnight

And we act like everything’s alright

As we both try to hide what we don’t feel

We’re always dancing all around it

Losing each other for so long

We didn’t know this

So we keep holding on

Even though the song is gone

Neither one of us wants to be the one to let go

Neither one of us wants to say what we both know

So we keep dancing all around it

Losing each other for so long

Tried to remember how it once found you

We keep holding on, holding on

Holding on
