'Cause the girl in my arms isn't you,
Dancing with somebody new
When it's you that my hearts calling to
Trying to smile, once in a while,
But I find it so hard to do.
For I'm dancing with tears in my eyes,

For I'm dancing with tears in my eyes
I am crying while dancing
'Cause the girl in my arms isn't you
I am holding someone else, but I wish it was you
Dancing with somebody new
I am dancing with someone I just met
When it's you that my heart's calling to
My heart is calling out for you, not this new person
Trying to smile, once in a while,
I am attempting to fake a smile
But I find it so hard to do.
However, it is difficult for me to maintain it
