Last Man Dancing

Jake Shears


The feathered-blonde smiles
With sleepy blue eyes
As she stubs her cigarette
Shakes her head and says
I think I′ve really outdone myself this time, ooh

The tender at the bar
Says he'll be a star
Searching for some fans
Going up with empty hands, thinks
To be stuck back here is such a crime

Last call for finding someone
Last call, we′ve had so much fun
Last call, the DJ's done

I'm gonna be the last man dancing
At the end of the night
Underneath the strobe light
I′m gonna be the last man dancing
I′ll be shaking my bones
I don't care if I′m alone

I'm gonna be the last man dancing
I′ll be carrying on
Even when the party's gone
I′m gonna be the only one
Who lets the night inject the Sun
Never going home, be the last man dancing

Through the smoke and haze
I wipe my tears away
Thankful no one else can see
All the pain that burdens me
Thinking what we lost, I still might find, oh

Finally, I'm feeling
Something like alive
I don't care, it′s happening at quarter past five
I′m packing up my problems
And I'm leaving ′em in someone else's, someone else′s mind

Last call for finding someone
Last call, we've had so much fun
Last call, the DJ′s done

I'm gonna be the last man dancing
At the end of the night
Underneath the strobe light
I'm gonna be the last man dancing
I′ll be shaking my bones
I don′t care if I'm alone

I′m gonna be the last man dancing
I'll be carrying on
Even when the party′s gone
I'm gonna be the only one
Who lets the night inject the Sun
Never going home, be the last man dancing

(Gonna be the last man dancing)
(Gonna find the silver lining)
(Gonna be the one who loves you)
(Long as the stars are shining)

(Gonna be the last man dancing)
(Gonna find the silver lining)
(Gonna be the one who loves you)
(Long as the stars are shining)

(Gonna be the last man dancing)
(Gonna find the silver lining)
(Gonna be the one who loves you)
(Long as the stars are shining)

(Gonna be the last man dancing)
(Gonna find the silver lining)
(Gonna be the one who loves you)
(Long as the stars are shining)

(Gonna be the last man dancing)
(Gonna find the silver lining)
(Gonna be the one who loves you)
(Long as the stars are shining)
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
