Keep it light on your toes and forget what you know
Time to take the floor
Put my hand on your back, feel your body react
You are a natural
We can jive 'til our footsteps travel a thousand miles tonight
Keep it light, youâll be led, hazel eyes
He was dancing with character
Such a wonderful dancer, it embarrassed her
He was dancing with character
He was always a fan of her and married her
Now he's dancing alone, losing control
Moving from the memory in his bones
Dancing with character and he'll never stop dancing 'til he's back with her
verse 2
Got a room, bought a house
Tried to save a good amount to start a family
Love is all when it lasts, now she only ever dances in my memory
As the language is fading, I find that the only way to talk is through my moves
I'm with you, hazel eyes
He was dancing with character
Such a wonderful dancer, it embarrassed her
He was dancing with character
He was always a fan of her and married her
Now heâs dancing alone, losing control
Moving from the memory in his bones
Dancing with character and he'll never stop dancing 'til he's back with her
Bridge
Now sheâs gone, is she free?
And is she watching over me?
Now Iâm here, just me, so will anybody dance with me?
Keep it light, youâll be led, hazel eyes
In the night, you'll be there, hazel eyes
He was dancing with character
Such a wonderful dancer, it embarrassed her
He was dancing with character
He was always a fan of her and married her
Now he's dancing alone, losing control
Moving from the memory in his bones
Dancing with character and he'll never stop dancing 'til he's back with her
(move to a single strum here)
He was dancing with character
He'll never stop dancing 'til he's back with her
