A MAN WHO LONGS TO DANCE

Standing on the edge of a dark song
Can’t see the earth beneath my shoes
Can’t see the sky unwind above me
I just hear this man who sings the blues

Life’s a dark song on the dark side of town
You don’t find this street just by chance
I’m just listening to his blues song
Inside me there’s a man who longs to dance 

      The yellow dog is howling
      The night turns blue
      The singer sings so lonely - sad and sweet
      Open up your heart
      Lean into the night
      Let the blues rhythm fill your feet

Everything is dark to a blind man
Your million blazing lights will not entrance
But this slow and lonely blues on the edge of town
Inside me there’s a man who longs to dance 

      The yellow dog is howling
      The night turns blue
      The singer sings so lonely - sad and sweet
      Open up your heart
      Lean into the night
      Let the blues rhythm fill your feet
