I've been to the party and I left alone 
And I've danced with a few that I'd be better off on my own 
I've been to the altar and I know I kneeled 
But I ended up dancing in the grass of another field 
Then someone told me I heard someone say 

Dance with the one who brung ya 
Dance with the one you know who got you there 
Dance with the one who brung ya 
Don't change hats, you know it's the one you wear 

My feet start moving down inside my shoes 
But I don't want to settle for the beat of a lonely blues 
And there's no use dancin' to a different drum 
When I've seen what happens and I know what will become 
I can testify it's never worth a try 

I looked high, I looked low 
You're never gonna find someone who loves you so 
Stand tall, stand strong 
You're only gonna see you're right where you belong 

Don't try to fix what has never been broke
