Lyrics
Tap Dancer
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Champion on the podium, another win
Quiet when the crowd's gone, deafening
And he sits down in a darkening room
And he turns off the TV
I don't know
Everything was easier before
Take me back
Before I knew of artificial roses
I wish there was magic
Every day
I wish it was different
Not the same
It's a tap dance to you
It's a minefield to me
And I'm watching
Every step
I don't know
Everything was easier before
Take me back
Before I knew of artificial roses
I don't know
Everything was easier before
Take me back
Before I knew of artificial roses
