Everybody Was Dancing Lyrics - Singles - Curtis Catie

She runs right out to the very edge 

Then takes a step back to clear her head 

She got married at twenty-one 

After thirty years it's hard to jump 

It's hard to jump 

And everybody was dancing on their wedding day 

And all her friends have been asking, 

"Why would you throw it away?" 

And she doesn't know what to say 

He is watching from back in his chair 

Wondering if she's bluffing or if it's a dare 

And he'd like to tell her they can work it out 

But the tender words won't come out 

They won't come out 

And everybody was dancing on their wedding day 

And all their friends have been asking, 

"Why would you throw it away?" 

And she doesn't know what to say 

She feels the terror most when she looks down 

She drops a penny and doesn't hear a sound 

And yet the silence in her own home 

Begs the question: "Why not be alone?" 

Why not alone? 

And everybody was dancing on their wedding day 

And to herself she is asking, 

"Why do I stay?" 

And she doesn't know what to say
