Dance with Me Songtext

von The Modern Lovers

Hi dear I'm just here from outside
I've been out all alone in the cold night
And in the shopping centre at midnight
I've been out all by myself in the moonlight

So I'm cold, but I can dance
I say, dance with me

Well hi, I just got back from Europe
Oh, I learned a lot, I used to dance in all those cities
You're life seems dull in the dorm
Oh, I'm excited and you're safe and warm

So you're warm, I'm cold
But I say, dance with me

And when you dance with me
Look at me and smile
When you look at me
I hope you'll smile

Because your face says sex when you smile dear
It's written in huge suburban letters
And the letters say 'tenderness,' to me it all says 'sex'
And dance with me

Oh because now
Dear don't you love the city?
Don't you love the idea of city???
You're my modern, suburban pretty
I say dance with me

Oh hi dear
I'm in from outside just like the barnyard
I've been shoppin around
Outside in the midnight moonlight
Your life seems to me dull in the dorm here
I'm excited and you're safe and warm

You're warm, I'm cold
I say, dance with me

(alright)
