Dancing On My Own Ground
Written by Lawrence Gowan
Lead Vocals by Lawrence Gowan
I must confess, I more or less
Have played your last request
I took the trip, aboard your ship
Well now we're back I guess
When I let you tempt me
Did I think my tank was empty
Or just running low?
Were one too many pieces missing
Had to learn how not to listen
Now I know
I've finally come around
Dancing on my own ground again
All that I'd lost and found
Dancing on my own ground again
And I'm alright
On my return, the bridge was burned
But some self-respect I'd earned
No more betrayed, no judges paid
Another page has turned
Many stars have fallen
Cause they thought they heard the calling
From a better place
Tumbling ever after
To the echoed hollow laughter
But they're lost in space
I've finally come around
Dancing on my own ground again
All that I'd lost and found
Dancing on my own ground again
And I'm alright
When I let you tempt me
Did I think my tank was empty
Or just running low?
Were one too many pieces missing
Had to learn how not to listen
Now I know
Dancing on my own ground again
Love me or shoot me down
I'm dancing on my own ground again
And I'm alright
