When I saw you guys dancing in the sun A shadow fell on my hearth
You where the worst mistake ever made
And she laughed too loud at your jokes Yes I know you were funny
But I couldn’t laugh
Because I knew where it would lead.
Now the anger has drowned out all the jokes, she couldn’t laugh anymore
See the pain in her smile.
And she’s tried, yes she’s tried to run away, but you would not let her go
You are her ball and her chain.
Now I wish you were dancing in the sun, but the steps were all wrong
So release her from her chains now.
With your jokes you imprisoned her heart, you never gave her a chance
She never knew you couldn’t dance.
Now the anger has drowned out all the jokes she couldn’t laugh anymore,
And she’s tried yes she’s tried to run away, but you would not let her go
