My love is cruel as the night She steals the sun and shuts out the light All of my colors turn to blue when I lose you Slow dancing, slow dancing, slow Slow dancing, slow dancing, slow Scarlet eyes and a see-through heart I saw it coming right from the start She picked me up but had me down on my knees Just step back and curve, please Slow dancing, slow dancing, slow No, I don't know why a man Searched for himself in his woman's eyes No, I don't know why a man Sees the truth but needs the lies My love is restless as the wind She moves like a shadow across my skin She left with my conscience And I don't want nothing, it just gets in the way Slow dancing, slow dancing, slow Slow dancing, slow dancing, slow Slow dancing, slow dancing, slow
