lyrics

Dance (Until the World Stops Turnin’)

So we wanna beat the clock we wanna beat each other
And grab it all for ourselves when we’d be better off with half
It’s just the ways of the world just the law of the jungle
Just a constant rat race ‘round the golden calf

Daddy I will dance for you until the world stops turnin’
I think that’s what I heard my youngest daughter say
But my head was in the clouds my ears deaf with my own echo
My eyes blindly looked for somethin’ far away

I don’t know if I responded to her very special offer
But it’s sad to imagine what chance I blew that day

Wish I could sit down on a kitchen chair
Forget about my yearnin’
And watch my daughter dance for me
Until the world stops turnin’

Every day we worry every day we’re in a hurry
Every day we feel like strangers in a strange land
But we’re reminded by our children that here’s somethin’ to believe in
That we shouldn’t build our house upon the sand

So I grit teeth clench my fists and try to choose my weapon
To fight the spirit of the times it seems more than I can stand

But now I’ll lay down my sword and shield
Where I can rest my burden
And ask my little girl to dance for me
Until the world stops turnin’

Let’s just sit here in the kitchen
Try to keep the home fire burnin’
And watch our daughter dance
Until the world stops turnin’
