Dancing Days (Bonus Demo)

Young man with a stone to throw
Take a breath and just let it go
Angry man with a cross to bear
Now you see life just isn't fair

Oh, let it go
Greater men have had their day to face the music
Realise you've made your bed

Read what the papers say
Your dancing days are over
The smile on your face will never hide your shame
You can't escape what they say
Your dancing days are over
The ghosts you see are shouting out your name

Oh, how you danced
Oh, how you sang
There is a feeling here that you began
Oh, how we stood and stared
Held on to every breath
It seemed the world stood still
Transfixed by every step

Oh, let go
The lesser men will be your crowd in captivation
Lesser men will tear you down

Read what the papers say
Your dancing days are over
The smile on your face will never hide your shame
You can't escape what they say
Your dancing days are over
The ghosts you see are shouting out your name

The ghosts you see are shouting out your name
The baying crowd demands a son to blame
Condemn a man and celebrate his pain
So glad to be a witness to your fame

Old man
Sings his final song
And wonders where
It all went wrong

Read what the papers say
Your dancing days are over
The smile on your face will never hide your shame
You can't escape what they say
Your dancing days are over
The ghosts you see are shouting out your name

Read what the papers say
Your dancing days are over
The smile on your face will never hide your shame
You can't escape what they say
Your dancing days are over
The ghosts you see are shouting out your name

The ghosts you see are shouting out your name
So glad to be a witness to your fame
