In the shadows of a place we used to go
Drinking cocktail after cocktail
Wondering if you'd show
My head started spinning
My mouth was feeling dry
Lost inside the music I,
I was trying not to cry
If they call it heartache
If they call it heartache
Why is the rest of my body aching
Why is the rest of my body shaking
Please Mr. DJ won't you turn the music down
Why can't you understand
I'm too hurt to dance tonight
I was sad there, looking solemn
He said I stood out from the crowd
He offered me a friendly face
To wipe away my frown
But I won't talk to strangers
There words are all the same
So I drowned inside this drinking glass
To take away the pain
If they call it heartache
If they call it heartache
Why is the rest of my body aching
Why is the rest of my body shaking
Please Mr. DJ won't you turn the music down
Why can't you understand
I'm too hurt to dance tonight
Please Mr. DJ won't you turn the music down
Why can't you understand
I'm too hurt to dance tonight
I was sad there, In the shadows of a place we used to go Drinking cocktail after cocktail Wondering if you'd show My head started spinning My mouth was feeling dry Lost inside the music I, I was trying not to cry If they call it heartache If they call it heartache Why is the rest of my body aching Why is the rest of my body shaking Please Mr. DJ won't you turn the music down Why can't you understand I'm too hurt to dance tonight I was sad there, looking solemn He said I stood out from the crowd He offered me a friendly face To wipe away my frown But I won't talk to strangers There words are all the same So I drowned inside this drinking glass To take away the pain If they call it heartache If they call it heartache Why is the rest of my body aching Why is the rest of my body shaking Please Mr. DJ won't you turn the music down Why can't you understand I'm too hurt to dance tonight Please Mr. DJ won't you turn the music down Why can't you understand I'm too hurt to dance tonight Explain Request ×
