I Still Dance

It’s been a minute since I saw your face,
Do you remember how the record played?
We were swaying like the night moved slow,
Two hearts in rhythm, letting go.
But you let the silence break our song,
Didn’t see my tears till I was gone.
Now the lights hit me, I’m moving free,
To a melody that don’t include you and me.

I hear the echoes of what we were,
In every sway, in every turn.
I took the pieces that you left behind,
Built a fire from the ruins of our time.

Now I dance to the beat of my survival,
Every step, a broken heart’s revival.
You never gave me the strength to shine,
Now I move to love you lost in time.
Yeah, I dance and the pain don’t show,
Like a river finding its flow,
I’m the song you can’t rewind,
Now I dance for the love you left behind.

I wear my freedom like a crown tonight,
No trace of tears beneath these eyes.
Every motion tells the truth I hid,
Every spin says I forgave what you did.
I tried to find myself in someone new,
But every rhythm still leads me back to you.

And as the DJ fades our past away,
I turn my pain into a sweet ballet.
My heart beats louder than your regret,
To a groove I’ll never forget.

Now I dance to the beat of my survival,
Every step, a broken heart’s revival.
You never gave me the strength to shine,
Now I move to love you lost in time.
Yeah, I dance and the pain don’t show,
Like a river finding its flow,
I’m the song you can’t rewind,
Now I dance for the love you left behind.

You left me shattered, I turned to art,
Painted my healing across my scars.
Now every motion whispers grace,
I found my power in this place.
And I’m standing in the crowd tonight,
Watching my soul take flight.

Now I dance to the beat of my survival,
Every step, a broken heart’s revival.
You see the woman you once confined,
I move to love you lost in time.
Yeah, I dance where you can’t go,
To a rhythm only I now know.
I’m the song you can’t define,
Now I dance, and I’m doing fine.

The floor remembers, but I forgive,
In every move, my spirit lives.
Once you loved, now I’m the light —
I still dance through the night.
