[Verse 1]
Lights were low, your eyes were high
We passed each other like the sky
Not a word, but I could hear
The echo of you drawing near
[Pre-Chorus]
You turned away just soon enough
But your smile was giving too much
This game we play with every step
Is everything we won’t admit
[Chorus]
We danced like strangers in the dark
Pretending not to fall apart
Our fingers brushed, and nothing more
But every beat said what we’re for
We danced like strangers, hearts enclosed
But in the silence, we both know
[Verse 2]
A thousand bodies, crowded heat
But I felt only you and me
The floor was loud, the lights were wild
But time slowed down when you just smiled
[Pre-Chorus]
You turned away just soon enough
But your smile was giving too much
This game we play with every step
Is everything we won’t admit
[Chorus]
We danced like strangers in the dark
Pretending not to fall apart
Our fingers brushed, and nothing more
But every beat said what we’re for
We danced like strangers, hearts enclosed
But in the silence, we both know
[Final Chorus]
We danced like strangers in the light
Afraid of wrong, afraid of right
A step away from something true
But neither one could see it through
We danced like strangers, nothing said
But all the words stayed in our heads
