Kevin Morby Lyrics

Jump to: Line by Line Meaning ↴

In my time, in my time, I was a dancer
In my time, in my time, I was a dancer
We would go out dancing, go out dancing
Right off Broadway
Go out dancing, go out dancing
Right off Broadway and it'd go

In my time, in my time, I was a dancer

In my time, in my time, I was a dancer
Oh the world's a floor, the world's a floor

And I'm a dancer
World's a floor, the world's a floor
And I'm a dancer and it goes

Line by Line Meaning

In my time, in my time, I was a dancer
I used to be a dancer in the past, during a different era

We would go out dancing, go out dancing / Right off Broadway
I used to go to dance clubs situated near the famous Broadway street in New York City

Go out dancing, go out dancing / Right off Broadway and it'd go
I had a good time dancing and the night would usually end on a high note

Oh the world's a floor, the world's a floor / And I'm a dancer
I perceive the world as a dance floor where I can express myself and my artistry

World's a floor, the world's a floor / And I'm a dancer and it goes
I consider myself a performer and I continue to dance wherever I am, no matter what happens
