intro |
Sh-bop sh-bop, sh-bop sh-bop, sh-bop sh-bop, oh-oh |
|
|
1. |
Your open arms, your open heart |
|
Dancing’s such a gentle art |
|
You're much too smooth. I’ve got a clue, so |
|
I Don’t Want to Dance With You |
|
|
chorus |
No bump and turn, no spin and dip |
|
No empty words from tempting lips |
|
No sudden void when the music’s through |
|
No, I Don’t Want to Dance With You |
|
|
turn |
Sh-bop sh-bop, sh-bop sh-bop, sh-bop sh-bop, oh-oh |
|
|
2. |
Your hands are strong, you hold me tight |
|
I close my eyes and feel the night |
|
It’s much too late, you’re right on cue, but |
|
I Don’t Want to Dance With You |
|
|
chorus |
No dip and bump, no turn and spin |
|
Don’t push me out. Don’t pull me in |
|
It’s a careless dance you do |
|
Oh, I Don’t Want to Dance With You |
|
|
turn |
Sh-bop sh-bop, sh-bop sh-bop, sh-bop sh-bop, oh-oh |
|
|
bridge |
All the right moves, all the right words |
|
You stood too tall: my voice went unheard |
|
Heart beats loud and right in time |
|
We do the steps; the dance unwinds |
|
|
3. |
The dance was slow. I’m out of breath |
|
The sudden stop; the little death |
|
You drop my hand and say “Adieu” |
|
I didn’t want to dance with you |
|
|
chorus |
No spin and dip, no bump and turn |
|
No feeling that I’ll never learn |
|
Your hands, they lied. I know what’s true |
|
I didn’t want to dance |
|
I didn’t want to dance |
|
But I'm glad I got to dance with you |
|
|
coda |
Sh-bop sh-bop, sh-bop sh-bop, sh-bop sh-bop, oh-oh |
|
Oooooooh |
