Alan Cumming - I Dance and Dance and Smile and Smile Lyrics

Lyrics I Dance and Dance and Smile and Smile - Alan Cumming



I′m always loving someone more than they love me
Lord, I wish that just this once that's not how it would be
I always try too hard when I find someone new
God, I wish that just this once you′d need me more than I need you
I danced to please my father just to win one glance
Some sign of his approval
I danced and danced and danced and danced
I smiled to make my mother proud, I was her child
To win some small affection
I smiled and smiled and smiled and smiled
My books and bikes I bartered to try and buy a friend
Now I've grown this heart i own is the currency I spend and spend and spend
And in the end I will give you everything I own
Sure you never want me for myself alone
Oh how I hate the way I am always trying to impress
Lord, if I could love me more than I could love you less
And if I could love you less I would not confuse you
Dancing dancing smiling smiling
'Til of course I lose you
