I'm Dancing As Fast As I Can lyrics

He said, "I've seen you before"

As the band broke into Misty

I put one hand on the bar

the whole room by then

was starting to spin

I said "you've got Hemingway's eyes"

and that night i called him papa

seems like there's so many lovers

Who hold you and yet yet

whose names you forget

Dance, they said

life is only for the moment

the light is brief

don't waste it

the taste is sweet

so taste it

so i said "i understand, i'm dancing as fast as i can"

Maybe we're just shooting stars

needing something to hold on to

but each thing we touch seems to vanish

like candles and friends

they burn at both ends

Dance they said

life is only for the moment

the light is brief

don't waste it

the taste is sweet

so taste it

so i said "i understand, i'm dancing as fast as i can"

He said "I'll see you around"

and as i brushed my hair i winked and said "you might"

cuz i know by now how it's done

after all the mornings after ..

and all the nights..

Dance they said

life is only for the moment

the light is brief

don't waste it

the taste is sweet

so taste it

so i said "i understand, i'm dancing as fast as i can"
