Nathan Evans - Dancing On My Own

Copied!

{Verse 1}
Somebody said you got a new friend
Does she love you better than I can?
There's a big, black sky over my town
I know where you at, I bet she's around

{Pre-Chorus}
Yeah, I know it's stupid
I just gotta see it for myself

{Chorus}
I'm in the corner
Watchin' you kiss her, oh
I'm right over here
Why can't you see me? Oh
I'm giving it my all
But I'm not the guy you're takin' home, ooh
I keep dancing on my own

{Verse 2}
I'm just gonna dance all night
I'm all messed up, I'm so outta line

{Pre-Chorus}
Stilettos on broken bottles
I'm spinnin' in circles

{Chorus}
I'm in the corner
Watchin' you kiss her, oh
I'm right over here
Why can't you see me? Oh
I'm giving it my all
But I'm not the guy you're takin' home, ooh
I keep dancing on my own

{Bridge}
So far away, but still so near
The lights go on, the music dies
But you don't see me standing here
I just came to say goodbye

{Break}
I'm in the corner
Watchin' you kiss her, oh

{Chorus}
I'm giving it my all
But I'm not the guy you're takin' home, ooh
I keep dancing on my own
I'm in the corner
Watchin' you kiss her, oh
I'm right over here
Why can't you see me? Oh
I'm giving it my all
But I'm not the guy you're takin' home, ooh
I keep dancing on my own

{Outro}
So far away, but still so near
The lights go on, the music dies
But you don't see me standing here

Song Description

edit description

"Dancing On My Own" by Nathan Evans is a heartfelt and emotional ballad about unrequited love. The lyrics tell the story of someone watching their ex with a new partner, feeling heartbroken and invisible as they dance alone in the corner. Despite their pain, they continue to give it their all and keep dancing on their own. The song captures the feeling of being so close yet so far from the person you love, and the bittersweet realization that it's time to say goodbye. With haunting vocals and a poignant melody, "Dancing On My Own" is a powerful anthem for anyone who has ever felt left behind in matters of the heart.
