The Lights

(Verse 1)

Saw her on the dance floor, shining like a dream,

Golden hair was flowing, eyes a diamond gleam.

She moved just like the music, smooth and full of grace,

I took her hand and followed, lost in time and space.

(Chorus)

We were spinning, twirling, caught up in the night,

Under neon halos, everything felt right.

But when the lights came up, oh, what a surprise,

The pretty girl I danced with had a whole disguise.

(Verse 2)

Her teeth were crooked fences, nose a mile wide,

Makeup was a miracle that hid what lurked inside.

Her smile sent a shiver, her laugh broke the spell,

I tried to step back, but I tripped and fell.

(Chorus)

We were spinning, twirling, caught up in the night,

Under neon halos, everything felt right.

But when the lights came up, oh, what a surprise,

The pretty girl I danced with had a whole disguise.

(Bridge)

Beauty fades in daylight, truth is hard to see,

Guess I learned the hard way—charm can be deceived.

Still, I tipped my hat and whispered with a grin,

"Thanks for the dance, let’s not do this again."

(Verse 3)

Now I check the lighting, before I lose control,

Lesson learned in heartbreak—love is in the soul.

But man, that was a shocker, I won’t even lie,

That pretty girl I danced with nearly made me cry.

Chorus)

We were spinning, twirling, caught up in the night,

Under neon halos, everything felt right.

But when the lights came up, oh, what a surprise,

The pretty girl I danced with had a whole disguise.
