The Dead Are Dancing Lyrics


I see a graveyard's past
The revolution's taken back
Whatever happened to the sonsNo more sunshine here
Only darkness here
There's no one living in this town'Cause the dead are dancing
The dead are dancing
The dead are dancing in the townYes, the dead are dancing
The dead are dancing
The dead are dancing in the townMother Mary comes to me
In this graveyard of hypocrisy
But Father Renta says I'll have to payIn the dead are buried lies
A sinful phantom cries
Can't we just rest up on the hill?But the moonlight calls us
The moon, it calls us
Up and out into the townYes, the dead are dancing
The dead are dancing
The dead are dancing in the townHeaven, does it come to me?
In the dreaming that my soul's been freed

And the torment of my madness gone awayAnd though God says he loves
And I, I think of love
I cannot change the way I amAnd so the moon, it calls me
The lunatic calls me
Up and out into the townYes, the dead are dancing
The dead are dancing
The dead are dancing in the town

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Toni Childs was born in Orange, California, but was moved to several small towns in Arkansas, Kansas, Oklahoma and Nevada during her childhood. At the age of 15, Childs ran away from home and became a blues musician. In 1972, Childs saw Pink Floyd in concert, and afterwards decided to pursue a career as a singer-songwriter. Childs joined the band Berlin in 1979, but left to form her own group before the recording of Berlin's first album. Toni Childs and the Movers, which included Jack Sherman and Micki Steele, toured for two years but did not release an album.
