Dance So Good
Wakey!Wakey! Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I remember when you lost your head
Sometimes I wonder how you stay so sad
When you're so beautiful
I remember every word you said
How you were scared because you'd never been
Somewhere so beautiful

So tell me why we're talking when we dance so good
Tell me why we're talking when we dance so good
I know you can't stay,
But I wish you would, I wish you would

Now you tell me that you're on the mend




Sometimes I wonder how you don't go mad
When you're so beautiful

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Wakey!Wakey!'s song Dance So Good are open to interpretation, but at the core of the song is the idea that sometimes words are unnecessary when you're dancing with someone. The first verse reminisces about someone who was once lost and scared, but is now beautiful and strong. The chorus repeats the question of why they're talking when they could be dancing, and expresses a desire for the other person to stay even though they know they can't. The second verse acknowledges that the other person has been through difficult times, but still manages to maintain their beauty and grace.


The idea of dancing as a form of communication and connection isn't new, but Dance So Good takes this idea and adds a layer of emotional complexity. The singer of the song is torn between the desire to dance and the fear that words will ruin the moment. The lyrics are introspective and melancholic, with a touch of longing and vulnerability. It's a song about the fleeting nature of human relationships and the desire to capture a moment of pure, unspoken connection before it slips away.


Line by Line Meaning

I remember when you lost your head
I recall a time when you were overwhelmed and lost your composure


Sometimes I wonder how you stay so sad
At times, I ponder how you maintain such a melancholic state


When you're so beautiful
It baffles me that you can be so aesthetically pleasing, yet remain so unhappy


I remember every word you said
I can recollect all the things you said, even the slightest detail


How you were scared because you'd never been
You expressed fear and anxiety because you had never experienced something before


Somewhere so beautiful
A place that was remarkably stunning to you


So tell me why we're talking when we dance so good
Why do we need to converse when our dancing speaks for itself?


Tell me why we're talking when we dance so good
Repeat of the above line for emphasis


I know you can't stay,
I understand that you have commitments elsewhere


But I wish you would, I wish you would
I desire that you could remain here with me and not have to leave


Now you tell me that you're on the mend
You've informed me that your mental/emotional state is improving


Sometimes I wonder how you don't go mad
Every so often, I'm amazed that you haven't lost your sanity due to your struggles


When you're so beautiful
Again, it's perplexing how such a gorgeous person can have so much inner turmoil
