Slow Dancing

my love is cruel as the night
she steels the sun and shuts out the light
all of my colors they turn to blue
win or lose

she does it slow dancin'
slow dancin'
she does it slow dancin'
all night long

scarlet eyes and a see through heart
she saw me coming right from the start
she picked me up 
but had me down on my knees
just begging her
begging her please

she does it slow dancin'
slow dancin'
she does it slow dancin'
all night long

and i don't know why
he may
search for himself in his lover's eyes
and i don't know why he may
not see the truth through the lies

my love is restless as the wind
she moves like a shadow across my skin
she left with my conscience but i don't want it back
it just gets in the way...
