Queen
Hi.ni (하이니) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You can dance
You can jive
Having the time of your life
See that girl
Watch that scene
Dig in the dancing queen

Friday night and the lights are low
Looking out for a place to go
Where they play the right music
Getting in the swing
You come to look for a king
Anybody could be that guy
Night is young and the music's high
With a bit of rock music
Everything is fine
You're in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance

You are the dancing queen
Young and sweet
Only seventeen
Dancing queen
Feel the beat from the tambourine
You can dance
You can jive
Having the time of your life
See that girl
Watch that scene
Dig in the dancing queen

You're a teaser, you turn 'em on
Leave 'em burning and then you're gone
Looking out for another
Anyone will do
You're in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance

You are the dancing queen
Young and sweet
Only seventeen
Dancing queen
Feel the beat from the tambourine
You can dance
You can jive
Having the time of your life
See that girl




Watch that scene
Dig in the dancing queen

Break it all down for me
You could tell me what’s all wrong
What's right when every single night I'm left hanging inside?
We could do it one time in a night rhyme,
Feening on the moonlight
Moonshine-sipping trying to get our head right
One time
Two times
If you're feeling all right, why you heated 'til the sparks fly?
Everything could be all right
And if you're feeling so high / why you pacing 'til the sunrise?
We'll be sinking and its alright, alright, alright
I wanna let you inside, wanna tell you I fight for you
I've been giving my all when I only get half of you
Let me get it all out 'cause I'm tired of feeling blue
Wish you well and goodbye to the man I never knew
You'll be coming home to an empty bed
A king on a lonely throne
I'll be moving on, yes I will love again
The kind of love we could never know
Is it safe to say I was your only friend?
That only goes to show
While I'm moving on
Yes, while I love again
What else will you know?
I wanna let you inside, wanna tell you I fight for you
I've been giving my all when I only get half of you
Let me get it all out 'cause I'm tired of feeling blue
Wish you well and goodbye to the man I never knew

Grew up in the same hometown as her. She was my friends neighbor. She would roll up with her ukulele and play songs for us while we were drinking. This was like 15yrs ago. You could tell at the time she was onto something.
