Dancing In the Dark (Live at Shoreline Amphitheatre, Mountain View, CA - 10/13/1986)

I get up in the evenin'
And I ain't got nothin' to say
I come home in the mornin'
I go to bed feelin' the same way
I ain't nothing but tired
Man, I'm just tired and bored with myself
Hey there, baby
I could use just a little help

You can't start a fire
You can't start a fire without a spark
This gun's for hire
Even if we're just dancin' in the dark

Message keeps gettin' clearer
Radio's on and I'm movin' 'round the place
I check my look in the mirror
Wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face
Man, I ain't gettin' nowhere
Just livin' in a dump like this
There's somethin' happenin' somewhere
Baby, I just know that there is

You can't start a fire
You can't start a fire without a spark
This gun's for hire
Even if we're just dancin' in the dark

You sit around gettin' older
There's a joke here somewhere and it's on me
I shake the world off my shoulder
Come on, baby, the laugh's on me

Stay on the streets of this town
And they know they're carvin' you up all right
Say you gotta stay hungry
Hey, baby, I'm just about starvin' tonight
I'm dyin' for some action
I'm sick of sittin' 'round here tryna write this book
I need a love reaction
Come on now, baby, gimme just one look

You can't start a fire
Sittin' 'round cryin' over a broken heart
This gun's for hire
Even if we're just dancin' in the dark
You can't start a fire
Worry 'bout your little world fallin' apart
This gun's for hire
Even if we're just dancin' in the dark

(Even if we're just dancin')
Even if we're just dancin' in the dark
(Even if we're just dancin' now)
Even if we're just dancin' in the dark
(We all here for the dancin')
Even if we're just dancin' in the dark
(We all here for the dancin' now)

Hey, baby
Don't you get little lonely sometimes?
'Cause everybody came with a little help
Oh, yeah
Alright
Let's dance
Come on, Danny!
