Dancefloor Confessions

Verse 1

Silk gloves hiding knuckles bruised sweet

Swagger in my step sliding down the street

Promises gold-plated, peeling away

Love’s a loaded dice that never wants to play

Pre-Chorus

Sweet tuxedo tears on my shoulder

Sip of longing, sips growing colder

Midnight spinning me out of control

I trade my caution for a ticket to your show

Chorus

Let’s drown our sorrows in velvet nights

Broken high heels cutting through these flashing lights

Whiskey on my lips but I won’t apologize

Heartbreak’s a rhythm I just can’t deny

Drop

Oh oh oh ah

Oh oh oh

Yeah yeah

Verse 2

Sugar-coated lies melt under my tongue

Playing with fire like the night’s still young

Midnight confessions in cigarette haze

Dancing through trouble in a feverish daze

Pre-Chorus

Dress torn and ready for disaster

Make me run, but I run faster

Nothing here ever really lasts

But I’m caught in the spell you cast

Chorus

Let’s drown our sorrows in velvet nights

Broken high heels cutting through these flashing lights

Whiskey on my lips but I won’t apologize

Heartbreak’s a rhythm I just can’t deny

Drop

Oh oh oh ah

Oh oh oh

Yeah yeah

Bridge

Neon jackets shimmer as you pass me by

I chase your shadow but it slips through the night

Glass on the pavement, scattered like my pride

If love’s a crime, I’ve already done my time

Chorus

Let’s drown our sorrows in velvet nights

Broken high heels cutting through these flashing lights

Whiskey on my lips but I won’t apologize

Heartbreak’s a rhythm I just can’t deny

Drop

Oh oh oh ah

Oh oh oh

Yeah yeah

Outro

Spin these records til the morning light

Laughing through mascara tears, holding tight

Gold chains tangled where our dreams collide

Dancing with memories we can never hide

Drop

Oh oh oh ah

Oh oh oh

Yeah yeah

Ah ah ah
