When I look around the room I see Ten thousand reasons not to speak I know you know exactly what I mean Cause we both know it takes one to know one With friends like this, who needs enemies? Cause we both know you didn't want to go out So you just suck it up and tough it out and put on a smile for awhile And you'd rather be dancing on your own Dancing alone I know you'd rather be dancing on your own Dancing alone I know you'd rather be dancing on your own I know you'd rather be at home Where you can drop the act and let yourself go I know you like the quiet But you can't keep on getting dressed up with no place to go With friends like this, who needs enemies? Cause we both know you didn't want to go out So you just suck it up and tough it out and put on a show And we both know you'd rather be dancing on your own Dancing alone I know you'd rather be dancing on your own Dancing alone I know you'd rather be dancing on your own I know you'd rather be at home Dancing on your own I know you didn't want to go out You'd rather be Dancing alone With the devil you know and not the devil outside your window Cause you've been burned a few too many times before And we both know you'd rather be dancing on your own On your own (dancing on your own) Oh, on your own (dancing on your own) With the devil you know and not the devil outside your window Cause you've been burned a few too many times before And we both know you'd rather be dancing on your own
