We Came To Dance Lyrics - The Gaslight Anthem

We are the last of the jukebox Romeos 

We are romantics by the light of the fourway 

We came to sing out a chorus, reinvent the good times 

And bring it all back home again 

Honey, we came to dance with the girls with the stars in their eyes 

Do the jump back, jack, stop and slide to the right 

Never break their hearts, never make them cry, come on 

Strike up the band, play a song that everybody knows 

If I'm not your kind, then don't tell a soul 

I'm not the one who hates bein' alone, so come on 

And in this unstable arena 

Of what's left or become of my America 

I'm askin' this dance so come take my hand, come on 

And in this unstable arena 

Of what's left or become of my America 

I'm askin' this dance so come take my hand, come on

Honey, we came to dance with the girls with the stars in their eyes 

Do the jump back, jack, stop and slide to the right 

Never break their hearts, never make them cry, come on 

Strike up the band, play a song that everybody knows 

If I'm not your kind, then don't tell a soul 

I'm not the one who hates bein' alone, so come on 

And if they end it all 

By the end of tonight 

If the big bomb drops down 

Over this quiet Edison sky 

We'll blow one last kiss 

To all the beautiful nights like this 

Under this central Jersey sky 

Honey, we came to dance with the girls with the stars in their eyes 

Do the jump back, jack, stop and slide to the right 

Never break their hearts, never make them cry, come on 

Strike up the band, play a song that everybody knows 

If I'm not your kind, then don't tell a soul 

I'm not the one who hates bein' alone, so come on

Cause you ain't never had a night on the town 

Like I can show you such a night on the town 

And you ain't never had a song you could sing 

Well it's a deep dark night and I hear you, I've been there 

And these are the songs that we sing 

Oh, these are the songs that we sing 

You've never seen a two-step 

Like when you've seen it from your mama's house 

Where the kids flash like lightning 

To the very best dancers around 

We learned from the very best dancers around 

We learned from the very best dancers in town 

Come take my hand, cause mama, we came to dance
