Lauren Mayberry - Anywhere But Dancing Lyrics

Downing all the gossip under neon lights
Sweating through a t-shirt on a Tuesday night
A pirouette to reel in
Heart to heart, and skin on skin
Hands beneath a T-shirt on a Tuesday night

I've been searching for the airs and the graces
I've been looking down the river of changes
I stare into the mirror to find the face you used to wear
But it isn't there
And now he takes you anywhere but dancing
Anywhere but dancing

All the greatest stories are in black and white
And the colours havе been fading on the edge of minе
Eye to eye, to and fro
Are we ever going to go
Tripping the light fantastic on a Tuesday night?

I've been searching for the airs and the graces
I've been looking down the river of changes
I stare into the mirror to find face you used to wear
But it isn't there
And now he takes you anywhere but dancing
Anywhere but dancing

And I don't know what is worse
The kindness or the curse
Of dancing on my own

I've been searching for the airs and the graces
I've been looking down the river of changes
I stare into the mirror to find the face you used to wear
But it isn't there
And now he takes you anywhere but dancing
Anywhere but dancing

Ooh, anywhere but dancing
Anywhere but dancing
