You're lookin at me but you don't know me
I'm invisible to the naked eye
I'm apart of ev'rything you?re doin'
I'm apart of you down deep inside
I'm the part that sings those goofy love songs
I'm the part of you you can't control
I'm the part that fucked up your promotion
I'm the part that hurts when you?re alone
On this beautiful night
By the bright Disco light
We will dance till the pain is all gone
If love is alive why can't I touch it?
Does it feel like Jello or a fire?
I could tell by te taste it was not poison
But is sure did mess up my insides
There's nothing else like you on my planet
You see me now in my true form
I did not come here ina Spaceship
I came the moment you were born
On this beautiful night
By the bright disco light
We will dance till the pain is all gone
