Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And a love for tomorrows seems to suit you just fine
Baby-baby-baby blues an' sorrows
And a love for tomorrows seems to suit you just fine
Can't forget that you told me so many promises, lies
I'm gonna try to forget these lonesome tears in my eyes
You've broken my heart, gonna do it again
Can't forget that you told me so many promises, lies
I'm gonna try to forget these lonesome tears in my eyes
The lyrics of "Dancing with tears in my eyes" by Dance A.D.N are about heartbreak and the struggle of moving on from a toxic relationship. The repetition of "baby-baby-baby blues" and "love for tomorrows" suggests that the singer is trapped in a cycle of sadness and hope, unable to escape the pain caused by his/her lover's broken promises and lies. The line "you've broken my heart, gonna do it again" conveys a sense of resignation and acceptance of the fact that the relationship is doomed to fail. The repeated use of the phrase "lonesome tears in my eyes" further emphasizes the sense of sadness and loneliness felt by the singer.
The theme of broken promises and shattered dreams is a common one in pop music, but "Dancing with tears in my eyes" stands out for its catchy melody and upbeat tempo, which contrast sharply with the melancholy lyrics. The juxtaposition of happy music and sad lyrics is a hallmark of dance-pop and disco music, which flourished in the 1980s, the decade when the song was released. The song's fast-paced rhythm and synthesizer-driven sound make it a classic of the era, and a popular choice for dance floors around the world.
Aside from its musical and cultural significance, "Dancing with tears in my eyes" has also been covered by several artists over the years, including Xylo, Ultravox, and Keisha Buchanan. The song has also been featured in several movies, TV shows, and commercials, cementing its place in popular culture. Moreover, it has sold millions of copies worldwide and has earned numerous awards and accolades for its enduring popularity.

Lyrics
Dancing with tears in my eyes
Weeping for the memory of a life gone by
Dancing with tears in my eyes
Living out a memory of a love that died
It's five and I'm driving home again
It's hard to believe that it's my last time
The man on the wireless cries again
It's over, it's over
Dancing with tears in my eyes
Weeping for the memory of a life gone by
Dancing with tears in my eyes
Living out a memory of a love that died
It's late and I'm with my love alone
We drink to forget the coming storm
We love to the sound of our favourite song
Over and over
Dancing with tears in my eyes
Living out a memory of a love that died
It's time and we're in each other's arms
It's time but I don't think we really care
Dancing with tears in my eyes
Weeping for the memory of a life gone by
Dancing with tears in my eyes
Weeping for the memory of a life gone by
Dancing with tears in my eyes

It's hard to believe that it's my last time
The man on the wireless cries again
It's over, it's over

It's late and I'm with my love alone
We drink to forget the coming storm
We love to the sound of our favourite song
Over and over
Dancing with tears in my eyes
Living out a memory of a love that died

Weeping for the memory of a life gone by
Dancing with tears in my eyes
Weeping for the memory of a life gone by
