It Might Have Looked Like We Were Dancing chords by Jay Bennett
Verse 1
Em
In my head it looked
D
like we were dancing
C
We were hiding our pain in
G
patterns on the floor
Em
We held each other like
C
D
we were lovers
C
Although we'd lost that
privilege many years before
G
C
I know that once we
D
held love's riches
But now inside,
G
C
we're the poorest of the poor
D
I lost you on that familiar stretch of highway
G
I could have sworn I'd never
C
driven down before
Em
And love will never be the same
D
C
Under compassion's rusted remains
D
Em
When confusion calls my name
D
C
And even memories won't explain
D
Em
I feel nothing
D
I know you could have tried to save me
C
But you never really tried to
G
understand my pain
Em
I knew right then the unspeakable
D
would happen
C
We'd never have to speak
G
so spitefully again
C
What was now hatred spilled
out onto the darkness
D
G
Where as young lovers we parked
C
and dreamt of what would be
Imagine futures that would never come
D
G
When the present pacified
the passion out
C
of me
Em
And if you were here,
you would hear me lie
D
C
And say I never meant for you to die
D
Em
When I held you tight, that one last time
D
C
And your salvation became mine
D
Em
I knew that finally you would feel
D
C
What I always knew was all too real
D
Em
We both felt nothing
you
