Dancing With Wolves

This is a song that I wrote a few years ago. It is about a toxic relationship and even though you want to leave, you end up staying in that relationship because of the hope that things will change.

[1st Verse]:

You place your bet; roll the dice.

Cross your fingers; close your eyes.

You say a prayer; hope you win.

Open your eyes; a devious grin.

'Cause you know that in love you put it all on the line,

Just to feel the warmth of another divine.

You gamble with your heart; your entire soul,

Your feelings, your mind, that somebody stole.

In the end awaits either happiness or sorrow,

but tonight I'm feeling lucky,

Let's leave fear for tomorrow.

[Chorus 1]:

So, tonight I'm dancing with the wolves.

I risk it all on this one dance with you.

If I die this night and tomorrow never comes,

Just remember that I love you.

Feel the beat of the drums.

So, tonight I'm dancing with the wolves.

Kick fear back, get into the groove.

In this one dance, last dance with you.

[2nd Verse]:

We've been through it all; lies and deceit.

We've come out stronger, never can be defeat.

They want to see us crash and burn.

Tonight baby, it's our turn,

To put our fingers in the air,

Tell 'em "F*ck it" we don't care.

[Chorus 2]:

So, I'm done dancing with the wolves.

I've risked it all on that one dance with you.

I did not die and tomorrow came,

I still love you.

Do you feel the same?

So, tonight I'm done dancing with the wolves.

Kicked fear back, got in the groove.

In that one dance, not-so-last dance

With you.
