Dancing Class Lyrics - Singles - Jane Siberry

I like to take a dancing class each year 

It helps myself to keep in touch with me 

And the girls I meet are different than the ones I meet at work 

And there's always at least one sensitive guy 

There is a girl I like to pair up with, she comes from Germany 

She's beautiful and I like the way she dresses 

And I like the way she moves 

We never speak, we only acquiesce 

There is a mirror in the locker room 

And sometimes after class, we stay and dance 

And she always shows me new steps 

And I try to follow her, follow her 

Berlin is far away 

I must stay, I must stay in shape 

I must try, I must try new steps 

Must perfect, must perfect each move 

That's harder 

I will try that then but sometimes, sometimes I have fears 

A strange and, a strange and dark force is trying 

Trying to pry me, pry me from, pry me from myself 

This is why, this is why I move, this is why, this is why I dance 

Must protect, must perfect each step 

I must try, I must dance faster 

This is the last dancing class I'll have 

The announcement came tonight after the class 

She said you're two hundred years old now 

There's no one left to hold you, this is the last dancing class you'll have
