-- Lyrics:

I know it’s a bad idea But how can I help myself Been inside for most this year And I thought a few drinks they might help

It’s been a while my dear Dealing with the cards life dealt I’m still holding back these tears While my friends are somewhere else

I pictured this year a little bit different when it hit February I step in the bar, it hit me so hard Oh how can it be this heavy? Every song reminds me you’re gone And I feel the lump form in my throat ‘Coz I’m here alone

Just dancing with my eyes closed ‘Coz everywhere I look I still see you Time is moving so slow And I don’t know what else that I can do So I’ll keep dancing with my eyes closed So I’ll keep dancing with my

Delusion is here again And I think you’ll come home soon A word brings me right back in Then it’s only me that’s in this room I guess I could just pretend The colours are more than blue But I lost more than my friend I can’t help but missing you

I pictured this month a little bit different no one is ever ready And when it unfolds you get in a hole Oh how can it be this heavy? Everything changes, nothing’s the same Except the truth is now you’re gone And life just goes on

So I’m dancing with my eyes closed ‘Coz everywhere I look I still see you Time is moving so slow And I don’t know what else that I can do So I’ll keep dancing with my eyes closed So I’ll keep dancing with my eyes closed Oh I’ll keep dancing with my

They’re shutting the bar They’re cleaning the floor And everyone is already home But I’m on my own

Still dancing with my eyes closed ‘Coz everywhere I look I still see you Time is moving so slow And I don’t know what else that I can do So I’ll keep dancing with my eyes closed Oh I’ll keep dancing with my eyes closed Oh I’ll keep dancing with my
