Dancing on My Own Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Somebody said you got a new friend
Does she love you better than I can?
Big black sky over my town
I know where you're at, I bet she's around
Yeah, I know it's stupid
I just gotta see it for myself

[Chorus]
I'm in the corner watching you kiss her, oh
I'm right over here, why can't you see me? Oh
I'm giving it my all, but I'm not the girl you're taking home, ooh
I keep dancing on my own

[Verse 2]
I'm just gonna dance all night
I'm all messed up, I'm so out of line
Stilettos and broken bottles
I'm spinning around in circles

[Chorus]
I'm in the corner watching you kiss her, oh
I'm right over here, why can't you see me? Oh
I'm giving it my all, but I'm not the girl you'rе taking home, ooh
I keep dancing on my own
[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
So far away but still so near
The lights goеs on, the music dies
But you don't see me standing here
I just came to say goodbye

[Chorus]
I'm in the corner watching you kiss her, oh
I'm right over here, why can't you see me? Oh
I'm giving it my all, but I'm not the girl you're taking home, ooh
I keep dancing on my own
I keep dancing on my own

[Outro]
(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
