You can’t take your eyes off her
I’m dancing all alone
While her fingers play heartstrings
On her beautiful guitar
And I’m watching as you whisper
As you start to fall in love
On the outside, twirling ‘round two
Of the people that I love
While the music you are making
Is tearing me in two
I know she’s right, I know she’s right
I know she’s right for you
But I’m asking lonely nights long
Why am I always wrong, so wrong?
I can’t take my eyes off you
As you laugh aloud
Sharing jokes I’ll never truly know
‘Cause they aren’t ours
And I’m watching as you whisper
As you start to fall in love
On the outside, twirling ‘round two
Of the people that I love
While the music you are making
Is tearing me in two
I know she’s right, I know she’s right
I know she’s right for you
But I’m asking lonely nights long
Why am I always wrong, so wrong?
And I feel like I’ve lost what I’ve never had
How can dancing alone hurt this bad?
I know she’s right, I know she’s right
I know she’s right for you
But I’m asking lonely nights long
Why am I always wrong, so wrong?
