Sometimes she'll have one drink too many Sometimes she laughs a bit too loud She's the first one on the dance floor She'll dance with any man around. I watch the way they all surround her I know that they don't understand her. She's just dancing to the beat of a broken heart Searching for comfort with strangers in the dark It's just her way to fight another lonely night Dancing to the beat of a broken heart. She's the center of attention Every time she comes in here And as she dances by my table I see the traces of a tear. There's someone somewhere, she's not over She's just looking for a shoulder. She's just dancing to the beat of a broken heart Searching for comfort with strangers in the dark It's just her way to fight another lonely night Dancing to the beat of a broken heart. She's dancing to the beat of a broken heart Searching for comfort with strangers in the dark It's just her way to fight another lonely night Dancing to the beat of a broken heart Dancing to the beat of a broken heart Dancing to the beat of a broken heart She's dancing to the beat of a broken heart, mmm.
