you look out of your window
into the night
could be rain could be snow
but it can’t feel as cold as you’re feeling inside
and all of you friends are either married vanished
or just left alone
but that’s no reason to just stop living
that’s no excuse to just give in to a sad and lonely heart
don’t forget to dance no no no
don’t forget to smile
don’t forget to dance no no no
forget it for a while
’cause darling darling
i bet you danced a good one in your time
and if this were a party
i’d really make sure the next one would be mine
yes you with the broken heart
don’t forget to dance no no no
don’t forget to smile
don’t forget to dance no no no
forget it for a while
don’t forget to dance no no no
forget it for a while
you walk down the street
and all the young punks whistle at you
a nice bit of old
just goes to show what you can achieve
with the right attitude
as you pass them by
they whisper their remarks one to another
and you give them the eye
even though you know that you could be their mother
you do the thing you love the most
what separates you from the rest
and what you love to do the most
and when they ask me how you danced
i’ll say that you danced real close
don’t forget to dance no no no
don’t forget to dance
