Lyrics
Climbs the wall, cries his call
Because it hurts so bad
Down the street, on her feet, she says
"C'mon, show me what you have."
It is the hour when all broken dreams
Look the the stars above,
Always fighting for true love
The cat dancers
They just don't get it
The cat dancers
Dance forever
One step up, 'two step back
Now he's in the danger zone
Pulls her tight, one more night
'Cause he can't dance alone.
She swings around and breaks away
As they delay the bitter end--
Each knows that neither one can win
The cat dancers
They're at it again
The cat dancers
Dance forever
The cat dancers
It's you and me.
I could leave but I could never--
I could never let you go.
Climb that wall
Cry that call
Better give it all you can, all you can.
Where is love when you need it,
What is left when you bleed it,
Something they don't understand. . .
So no one changes, no one hides the tears
That haunt their eyes--
The way love hurts becomes a way of life
For the cat dancers
They just don't get it
The cat dancers
Dance forever
The cat dancers
It's you and me
I could leave, but I could never let you go
