For I'm dancing with tears in my eyes
I am weeping while I dance
'Cause the girl in my arms isn't you,
The girl I am dancing with is not you
Dancing with somebody new
I am dancing with someone I have not danced with before
When it's you that my hearts calling to
My heart is yearning for you
Trying to smile, once in a while,
I attempt to smile occasionally
But I find it so hard to do.
Smiling is difficult for me
For I'm dancing with tears in my eyes,
I am still crying as I dance
'Cause the girl in my arms isn't you
The girl I am dancing with still isn't you
