Dan Seals Someone Else's Dance
I met her out in Colorado
She didn't know which road to follow
She thumbed on down to Santa Fe
Before the snowflakes blew
*
Back home they didn't understand
So she had to change her plans
The midnight rain, the baby came
The father never knew
And you know I didn't plan to stay
But the roads were old and they washed away
*
And in between the life we dream
And those dark and dusty days
We drive to work and make our plans
As time tip toes away
*
The music plays from far away
A song of circumstance
We step in time or fall behind
In someone else's dance
*
Staring at the starry sky
Hand in hand the boy and I
We watch 'm fall
The Momma calls
It's time to come inside
And he'll never know how close he came
To a different life with a another name
*
And in between the life we dream
And those dark and dusty days
We drive to work and make our plans
As time tip toes away
*
The music plays from far away
A song of circumstance
We step in time or fall behind
In someone else's dance
