Those who dance and romance while they dance
 They seem so happy and [bad word]  Though they sing and they swing as they sway
 Somehow I can't feel that way

For I'm dancing with tears in my eyes
 'Cause the boy/girl in my arms isn't you
 Dancing with somebody new
 When it's you that my heart's calling to

Trying to smile once in a while
 But I find it so hard to do
 For I'm dancing with tears in my eyes
 'Cause the boy/girl in my arms isn't you

While the throng's in the spell of a song
 My thoughts keep drifting to you
 While each pair seems to share their affair
 They're making me blue

For I'm dancing with tears in my eyes
 'Cause the boy/girl in my arms isn't you
 Dancing with somebody new
 When it's you that my heart's calling to

Trying to smile once in a while
 But I find it so hard to do
 For I'm dancing with tears in my eyes
 'Cause the boy/girl in my arms isn't you
