Why am I dancing?

How did I get here?
Who did I ever harm?
I hope I’m an honest man
no cause for alarm

Why am I dancing
when I’m so alone?
What do I have to celebrate
here on my own?

I may as well be naked
for I’ve nothing to hide
I can feel tears in my eyes
Are they really justified
by all that I’m leaving behind?

I’m starting a new life
in a world far away
from the people who brought me up
and I disobey

I don’t have all the answers
but I’m trying to learn
and if I’m to justify
the questions asked in return
I’ll need all the help I can find

Why am I dancing
when I’m here alone?
I can feel tears in my eyes
My comfort zone

Why am I dancing
when I’m so alone?
Maybe I can celebrate
on my own?

Why am I dancing?
Why am I dancing?
Why am I dancing?
Why am I dancing?
