Dancing Circles
(Lili McGovern)

The hook for this song was inspired by John Vezner at the REO Songwriting Camp in BC. It used to be, "When Will You Make Your Move"...Dancing circles turned out to be perfect in so many ways...Thanks Jon!
You could spot me a mile away
breathing in every "hey, hey, hey"
ready and willing to behave
you could have me dancing in circles
All the acts are choreographed
step by step we chance the dance
you make a joke i laugh my laugh
you have me dancing in circles
Glint and glitter they shimmer away
only tattered stained linens remain
waltzes litter the road to your fame
one remains
Sleight of hand, a trick of the light
you lift me up into the spotlight
you pull the wool up over my eyes
we start to dance in circles
you spotted me from a mile away
I never will forget that day
20 years I still do pray that
we keep on dancing in circles
