In a city named for a man with some awful choices in life It makes sense I met a couple dozen Christophers tonight Business boys backlit by a founding father bar-light And I just don't feel like dancing without you No I just don't feel like dancing without you Criticizing the jukebox and making fun of the dudes No I just don't feel like dancing without you But it's not like dancing could undo a time I had with you
Undo Can't undo dances I had with you
I saw a black and yellow bird On a black and yellow flower I thought about Pittsburgh I thought about you for an hour How come I rarely let my nostalgia have power And I just don't feel like dancing without you No I just don't feel like dancing without you Making excuses like 'I forgot my wallet' or '... my shoes' No I just don't feel like dancing without you But it's not like dancing could undo a time I had with you It's not like not dancing would make a memory more true
Undo Can't undo dances I had with you
