When I met you I was focused Full of love and Pure devotion Are you happy That I folded Just to lay down In your bed of roses? I'm pouring salt inside the cut I need to walk it off I take my liquor with no chaser So I can toughen up You wanna be a man Then be the man you're talking 'bout And put your money where your mouth is baby I've been hurting all day But daddy don't cry So I'm dancing my tears away The light is all it takes But if we're dancing in the dark At least we're dancing our fears away Now I'm going Through the motions I'm convinced that Love is hopeless If I leave now Will you notice? If I stay here Will you rip me open? I'm pouring salt inside the cut I need to walk it off I take my liquor with no chaser So I can toughen up You wanna be a man Then be the man you're talking 'bout And put your money where your mouth is baby I've been hurting all day But daddy don't cry So I'm dancing my tears away The light is all it takes But if we're dancing in the dark At least we're dancing our fears away
