You Used To Love To Dance Lyrics - Brave And Crazy - Melissa Etheridge

Lying in a city night 

a million fingers tingling my skin 

out thee in the sea tonight 

i thought i saw you clutching your sin 

you rolled me over long ago 

and told me you were strong enough to go 

you needed more than this lover's dream 

you need the steel and the concrete beams in your life 

in your life 

We laughed and drank in the jukebox light 

and we tore the rug in that downtown dive 

every saturday night 

for fifty cents we'd dance all night long 

and each new tune we said that's our song 

oh it felt so right 

well ecstasy ain't free 

but compromise is chance 

i remember how 

you used to love to dance 

They told me you have found your love 

you moved in locked up and put out your blues 

well all god's children got to grow up 

and play house make vows to hang up their shoes 

do you sit and talk over coffee cups 

do headline mornings satisfy and fill you up 

i kept your eyes and your cigarette kiss 

you couldn't keep the lies the adrenalin bliss in your life 

in your life 

We laughed and drank in the jukebox light 

and we tore the rug in that downtown dive 

every saturday night 

for fifty cents we'd dance all night long 

and each new tune we said that's our song 

oh it felt so right 

well ecstasy ain't free 

but compromise is chance 

i remember how 

you used to love to dance 

I'm gonna go out tonight 

i'm gonna drive up to the hill 

i'm gonna dive on into those city lights 

and i'm gonna dance, dance 

dance till i get my fill 

We laughed and drank in the jukebox light 

and we tore the rug in that downtown dive 

every saturday night 

for fifty cents we'd dance all night long 

and each new tune we said that's our song 

oh it felt so right 

well ecstasy ain't free 

but compromise is chance 

i remember how 

you used to love to dance
