I
haven’t got the glue to mend your broken heart
I
don’t think this song’s gonna do it
But
at least it’s a start
I
can see you’re tired and you have nothing much to say
Sleep
well my friend - I’ll be back at the break of day
So
keep on dancin' to the beat of the drum
You’ll
still be dancin' when daylight comes
We’ll
be dancin' when daylight comes, yeah
We
will be dancin'
We’ll
be dancin' when daylight comes
Young
children dance with never being told
Most
of them forget though as they grow old
So
dance, yeah - Let your children dance
If
you dance your whole life long
Your
soul will keep on dancin' when your body is gone
So
dance, yeah - Let your spirits dance
When
your life is done and you’ve lived it well
You’ll
be dancin' on the mountaintop and ringin' your bell
And
the bell that you ring is the song in your soul
To
ring that bell is your goal so go and dance
Let
the nations dance - If they do, future generations will dance
So
keep on dancin' to the beat of the drum
You’ll
still be dancin' when daylight comes
We’ll
be dancin' when daylight comes, aay
We
will be dancin'
We’ll
be dancin' when daylight comes
I
see a circle of stone
I
see a circle of light
I
see a circle of faces, aaaye
That
are all dancin' in sight
I
see a circle of truth
Deep
inside a circle of lies
Without
the light of truth
Every
lie of darkness dies
So
keep on dancin' to the beat of the drum
You’ll
still be dancin' when daylight comes
We’ll
be dancin' when daylight comes, yeah
We
will be dancin'
We’ll
be dancin' when daylight comes
I
wish if I could step inside the music
Cuz
my whole life long I feel that I belong inside a song
What
would be your choice if you could choose it?
Where
in this world do you belong?
So
let the rhythm rattle your bones
Let
the wings of melody carry your spirit home
Let
it carry your spirit home, yeah
No,
no, no, carry – carry my spirit home, yeah
No,
no, no carry my spirit home, yeah
No,
no, no carry my spirit home, yeah
Hey,
hey, hey carry my spirit home, yeah
No,
no, no carry my spirit home, yeah
Hey,
hey, hey carry my spirit home, yeah
No,
no, no carry – carry my spirit home
