Text: Timothy B. Schmit. Down Here People Dance Forever.

(t. b. schmit/w. jennings/b. gaitsch)

Night on a street without memories
In a club without a name
Here people have no tomorrow
And the dance is not a game

You let me feel all the night inside you
What could I do?
I made a place for me there beside you
Now the dance is never through

'cause we soon found out
Down here people dance forever
It's a haunting sight to see
It's their one way out
Down here people dance forever
While you're dancing you are free

Life comes to us through the music
Feel the heartbeat in the drum

Life, this is no time to lose it
Please don't let the morning come

I got a message from tomorrow
I'm overdue
I sent a message to tomorrow
I will be there when the dance is through

But I know right now
Down here people dance forever
It's a haunting sight to see
It's their one way out
Down here people dance forever
While you're dancing you are free

And you'll soon find out
Down here people dance forever...
