Words & Music by Jessie Sparks

you held out your hand & you asked me to dance
i rose to my feet & you pulled me away

as we sway to the radio playing a motown song
head on your heartbeat, static fades
the loneliness plays

oh i have loved before
but never been loved
& i have cared & bared my all
been taken advantage of

no i’m not praying for these arms for always
i know this moment will come to an end
all i’m hoping is while there’s music
we can stay on the dance floor

don’t want to stop moving, the rhythm is leading
ever so slowly you rock me away

with every step i seem to forget
space all around us, everything fades
the melody stays

oh i have loved before
but never been loved
& i have cared & bared my all
been taken advantage of

no i’m not praying for these arms for always
i know this moment will come to an end
all i’m hoping is while there’s music
we can stay on the dance floor

oh i have loved before
but never been loved
& i have cared & bared my all
been taken advantage of

no i’m not praying for these arms for always
i know this moment will come to an end
all i’m hoping is while there’s music
we can stay on the dance floor
