Tap Dancing
Tap dancing, falling over my own two feet.
Hoping that you like what you see in disguise.
I'm tap dancing, making up the moves as I go along,
forgetting all the words to my song until I cry.
Just doing what I can for you to like me.
Hiding the clown I am deep down inside me.
Don't look too closely, just clap your hands.
Don't say you know me, just cue the band.
Let me tap dance for you.
Let me tap dance for you.
Tap dancing over all the marks on the floor,
pretending that I might be something more than a smile.
I'm tap dancing, maybe I'm asking for too much.
Maybe I should just give it up for a while.
And let the curtain fall and face the ugly.
I shouldn't have to dance at all for you to love me.
Don't look too closely, just clap your hands.
Don't say you know me, just cue the band.
And let me tap dance for you.
Let me tap dance for you.
I really wanna take off these shoes,
but I'm afraid of the truth,
that I'm not enough for you.
Don't look too closely, just understand.
No need to judge me, just be a fan.
Let me tap dance for you.
Let me tap dance for you.
I'm gonna tap dance for you.
Tap dance for you.
