Witness
Mikhael Paskalev Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The heartache itching like a red eye
The set running off of the walls
Nobody sees it when a teardrop falls behind your eyes
So close your eyes
Keep dancing
A witness in the shadow of our love tonight
Keep dancing
For the phone calls, someone's got to answer
We're turning
Baby, you're a dancer with one more chance for broken dreams
Rainbows and lazer beams
Keep dancing
A witness in the shadow of our love tonight
Keep dancing
You ain't guilty of anything that ain't right
Keep turning, turning on the type of the edge of the knife
Testify it all underneath the lights
Ah, baby you moving me
Oh, yeah you, coming to set me free
You, will never see me cry
Under electric lights
Keep dancing
A witness in the shadow of love tonight
Keep dancing
You ain't guilty of anything that ain't right
Keep dancing
No one's there to have a guard to do you wrong
Like every single one is your favorite song
Keep dancing
A witness in the shadow of love tonight
Keep dancing
You ain't guilty of anything that ain't right
Keep turning, turning on the type of the edge of the knife
Testify it all underneath the lights
So keep dancing
