Dancing In The Dark - Ruth Moody

I get up in the evening

And I ain't got nothing to say

I come home in the morning

I go to bed feeling the same way

I ain't nothing but tired

I'm just tired and bored with myself

Hey there baby I could use just a little help

You can't start a fire

You can't start a fire without a spark

This gun's for hire

Even if we're just dancing in the dark

Message keeps getting clearer

Radio's on and I'm moving 'round the place

I check my look in the mirror

I wanna change my clothes my hair my face

Man I ain't getting nowhere I'm just living

In a dump like this

There's something happening somewhere

Baby I just know that there is

You can't start a fire

You can't start a fire without a spark

This gun's for hire

Even if we're just dancing in the dark

Even if we're just dancing in the dark

You sit around getting older

There's a joke here baby and it's on me

I'll shake this world off my shoulder

Come on baby the laugh's on me

Stay on the streets of this town

And they'll be carving you up all right

They say you gotta stay hungry

Hey baby I'm just about starving tonight

I'm looking for some action

I'm sick of sitting 'round here trying to write

This book

I need a love reaction

Come on baby gimme just one look

You can't start a fire sitting 'round crying

Over a broken heart

This gun's for hire

Even if we're just dancing in the dark

You can't start a fire worrying about

Your little world falling apart

This gun's for hire

Even if we're just dancing in the dark

Even if we're just dancing in the dark

Even if we're just dancing in the dark

Even if we're just dancing in the dark

Even if we're just dancing in the dark

Even if we're just dancing in the dark

Even if we're just dancing in the dark

Even if we're just dancing in the dark

Hey baby

Hey baby

Hey bab
