Standin' in the doorway of my empty childhood room Wearin' a shirt I've had since I was seventeen (I was seventeen) I can see her curly hair and posters on the wall And when I check the mirror, I see her in me (I see her in me) Always late and always loud Couldn't seem to figure out a way To be enough for them to notice (notice) Second choice and second best Couldn't say the things she meant Or find the missing pieces that were broken But she can dance, dance, dance Even when it's raining When the sky is fallin' down Yeah, she can dance, dance, dance With no music playing Like nobody's watchin' now Yeah, she can dance She can dance Dance Now she can dance Oh, oh I've seen bathrooms bigger than my old fourth floor apartment Where I lived the year that I dropped out of school (I dropped out of school) Seven dollar coffees and the romance of the city Where you think you won't get hurt until you do (hurt until you do) Always tall and always proud Couldn't seem to figure out a way To keep the ones she loved from leavin' (leavin') Little drunk, a little numb Couldn't sleep without the hum of taxi cabs To drown what she was feeling But she can dance, dance, dance Even when it's raining When the sky is fallin' down Yeah, she can dance, dance, dance With no music playing Like nobody's watchin' now Yeah, she can dance She can dance Dance Now she can dance Hi, DJ You already know, I can dance I'm fierce enough I'm just feeling the fantasy But she can dance, dance, dance Even when it's raining When the sky is fallin' down Yeah, she can dance, dance, dance With no music playing Like nobody's watchin' now Yeah, she can dance She can dance Dance Now she can dance Oh, oh
