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 dancing with someone else because you are not here
Dancing with somebody new
I am dancing with someone other than you
When it's you that my hearts calling to
I am thinking of you and wishing it was you with me
Trying to smile, once in a while,
I am attempting to put on a happy face occasionally
But I find it so hard to do.
However, it is difficult for me to do so
For I'm dancing with tears in my eyes,
Despite my efforts, I am still crying while dancing
'Cause the girl in my arms isn't you
Because I am with someone else
