Dancing In Limbo Lyrics - Singles - Maccoll Kirsty

(Kirsty MacColl) 

He said, 'Baby don't go' 

So she sat down again 

And they said they'd be friends 

Her mother said 

She'd told her so 

She'd made her own bed 

Now she'd have to lie in it, and the 

Time goes 

Summertime slow 

And the world stops turning 

And they're dancing in limbo, limbo, limbo 

Took my pills today 

But I don't feel better 

In a funny sort of way 

When it's too hot for anything 

It's too hot to sleep 

Your mind runs down to where 

The river runs deep, and the 

Time goes 

Summertime slow 

And the world stops turning 

And they're dancing in limbo, limbo, limbo 

His dream, peaches and cream 

A cheesecake betty from the celluloid screen 

So close he holds out his hand 

But she sleeps like a woman 

When he wakes like a man, and the 

Time goes 

Summertime slow 

And the world stops turning 

And they're dancing in limbo, limbo, limbo
