Leave me alone

Please leave me alone
i'm doing just fine
the music is speaking
don't break its rhyme

Fervent rhythm
making lovers from friends
bringing them together
oh, how will it end?

I picture us
like couples on the floor
physically speaking
as we had once before

Swaying in my chair
head moving to the beat
who said dancing only occurs
while you're movin' your feet

Approached by partners
who names are unknown
why can't they see
i'm content being alone

Summoned again
through alcohol trance
the words that I dread
"do ya wanna dance?"

"Sorry" i reply
with regret in my tone
"i'm too sober to dance,
too drunk to drive home"
