Don't Forget to Dance

You walk down the street and all the young punks whistle at you
Don't forget to smile

'Cause darling, darling
What you can achieve with the right attitude
And all of you friends are either married, vanished or just left alone
Even that you know that you could be their mother
Their remarks one to another and you give them the eye
I bet you danced a good one in your time
Forget it for a while
A nice bit of old just goes to show

Don't forget to dance, no, no, no
Don't forget to dance, no, no, no

Don't forget to dance, no, no, no
And what you love to do the most?
Yes, you with the broken heart
As you pass them by they whisper
Don't forget to dance, no, no, no

And if this were a party

You do the thing you love the most
Don't forget to dance, no, no, no
That's no excuse to just give in to a sad and lonely heart
Don't forget to smile
What separates you from the rest
And when they ask me how you dance
Forget it for a while
I'd really make sure the next one would be mine

But it can't feel as cold as what you're feeling inside

I say that you dance real close
Don't forget to dance, no, no, no
Forget it for a while
But that's no reason to just stop living
