Dancing’s Done Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I see the panic somewhere in your eyes
Yeah, in your eyes
Our wildest habits brought us here tonight
Yeah, back to life

[Pre-Chorus]
If you're gonna leave me hangin'
Then you're gonna leave me dead
I'm never goin' home
If you're not there

[Chorus]
I wanna give into your dark temptation
I wanna touch you like nobody does, oh
People like you and me were born to run
So where we going when the dancing's done? (Oh)
I wanna give into your dark temptation
I wanna touch you like nobody does, oh
People like you and me were born to run
So where we going when the dancing's done?

[Verse 2]
I wanna taste the secrets that you hide
And make 'em mine (Ah)
Come take me to the edge of afterlife
And take your time
[Pre-Chorus]
If you're gonna leave me hangin'
Then you're gonna leave me dead
Oh, I'm never goin' home
If you're not there (Oh)

[Chorus]
I wanna give into your dark temptation
I wanna touch you like nobody does, oh
People like you and me were born to run
So where we going when the dancing's done? (Ooh)
I wanna give into your dark temptation
I wanna touch you like nobody does, oh
People like you and me were born to run
So where we going when the dancing's done? (Oh)

[Outro]
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ooh, ooh
When the dancing's done
When the dancing's done

What did Ava Max say about "Dancing's Done"?
Genius Answer

This song almost didn’t even make the album because I put it in last. This song is, I would say, my most sensual, sexy song. I don’t usually sing in falsetto. It’s a different side of me that people haven’t heard. This song is the beginning of the next phase for me. I feel like I found a sound that I absolutely love.
