[Verse 1]
Love is not a toy
Fragile girls and boys
Gather beating hearts
Shattered work of art
[Pre-Chorus]
I was afraid of the love that you asked for
You asked for
You were the light in my eyes; you're the answer
The answer
[Chorus]
The fire in you is long gone
It burned too bright like the red sun
The child in me is elsewhere
(Elsewhere, elsewhere, elsewhere)
On the dance floor
[Verse 2]
Love is not a choice
(All of the kids on the dance floor)
Wasted girls and boys
(Let us be free on the dance floor)
[Pre-Chorus]
I was afraid of the love that you asked for
You asked for
You were the light in my eyes; you're the answer
The answer
[Chorus]
The fire in you is long gone
It burned too bright like the red sun
The child in me is elsewhere
(Elsewhere, elsewhere, elsewhere)
On the dance floor
[Bridge]
Elsewhere (elsewhere, elsewhere, elsewhere)
On the dance floor, ah
(Elsewhere, elsewhere, elsewhere)
On the dance floor, mmm
[Pre-Chorus]
I was afraid of the love that you asked for
You asked for
You were the light in my eyes; you're the answer
The answer
[Chorus]
The fire in you is long gone
It burned too bright like the red sun
The child in me is elsewhere
(Elsewhere, elsewhere, elsewhere)
On the dance floor
[Outro]
The child in me is elsewhere, on the dance floor
The child in me is elsewhere, on the dance floor
