The Hangdogs - Waltz This Waltz Alone

Copied!

Well this barroom ain’t my home
But I guess it’ll do for now
I got no place else to go anyhow
‘Cause outside that door lies the world
The one slowly driving me mad
But in here they got shiners and girls
And that ain’t so bad

There’s a song
There’s an angel
There’s a road for me out there, I know
But right now the best I can do
Is to waltz this waltz alone

Bartender’s the only job here
You can check all the rest at the door
And love in here don’t last forеver
But it might until 4
And this grown-up world ain’t the utopia
That grown-ups all told us it was
And this glass keeps it focused
So it mеans even less than it does

There’s a song
There’s an angel
There’s a road for me out there, I know
But right now the best I can do
Is to waltz this waltz alone

Song Description

edit description

The Hangdogs' "Waltz This Waltz Alone" paints a picture of a weary soul seeking solace in a dimly lit barroom. The protagonist finds temporary refuge from the harsh realities of the outside world within the confines of the bar, where shiners and girls offer fleeting distractions. Despite the allure of the barroom, the protagonist is aware of a deeper yearning for something more meaningful beyond the familiar walls. The song captures the bittersweet essence of longing and loneliness, encapsulated in the poignant lyrics that speak to the universal human experience of searching for connection and purpose in a world that often feels empty and devoid of meaning. Through a melancholic waltz, The Hangdogs beautifully convey the emotional complexity of navigating life's uncertainties and finding solace in the simple act of dancing alone.
