the corner

Downtown club on Friday night

Fixing makeup one more time

See you holding someone tight

And my heart's beating, beating

While I'm cheating, cheating time

I'm right here in the corner

Watching you love her instead (instead)

The lights flash like a warning

But I can't get you out of my head

And I'll keep dancing, keep dancing

While I'm breaking, breaking

Right where you can't see

Three drinks in, I'm feeling strong

Till I see you in the strobe

And the room starts spinning, spinning

While I'm slipping, slipping low

Maybe if I dance hard enough

These tears will look like sweat

Maybe if I smile bright enough

You'll forget, you'll forget

I'm right here in the corner

Watching you love her instead (instead)

The lights flash like a warning

But I can't get you out of my head

And I'll keep dancing, keep dancing

While I'm breaking, breaking

Right where you can't see

(Right where you can't see)
