It Wasn`t My Idea To Dance — текст песни (Electric Light Orchestra)

The people throwing pennies in my soup
Expecting me to be ashamed of you
Now my needs are growing and I`m groping round
I am really groping round

We didn`t break until the morning
One dramatic glance
Now it`s too late to want your freedom
It wasn`t my idea to dance

The prince of thunder gave his warning speech
His talons dared to grasp you from my reach
Once again you clutch me to your warming breast
Now I lay me down to rest

We didn`t break until the morning
One dramatic glance
Now it`s too late to want your freedom
It wasn`t my idea to dance

As dawn is nearing
I`m hearing tearful music

So I have given you the will to weep
For now you`re at your last and final peak
Dangerously the past it explodes about by ears
Loudly ringing through my ears

We didn`t break until the morning
One dramatic glance
Now it`s too late to want your freedom

It wasn`t my idea to dance
It wasn`t my idea to dance
