Tory Cottingham - Dancing Shoes lyrics

rate me

Waking up to a brand new day

I can’t smell anything but the cigarette smoke

in your hair, and the whisky on your breath.

All I know is this is where I want to be -

I don’t know why; it just feels so right that

I cannot complain.

You’re lying beside me;

your hair is in a mess.

Your eyes are bloodshot from the night before.

But you look beautiful. You are beautiful in every way.

I’m screaming Hallelujah as this

plane is going down,

well Honey I ain’t done missing you yet.

Your eyes are telling me something,

but your lips scream something else tonight.

I’m screaming Hallelujah as this plane is going down,

well Honey I ain’t done kissing you yet.

These nights ain’t getting any younger,

so put on your dancing shoes, and get us the Hell out of town.

Your timing couldn’t be better;

I could’ve had you forever, but I chose to

wait to get you when I could.

There’s nothing unconventional about a

bottle across my head or a bloodstain on the ground.

You’re waiting for me, waiting up,

and I can see that look –

I fucked it up and I don’t know what to do to

make it right, to make it right with you.
