She watches the couples that dance on the floor
She remembers the time
She had what they have and more
The man in her life who made her feel good night and
day
'Til one night the music just stopped
And he danced away
Chorus
Now in the neon light
She drinks up tonight and stays hungry
For the love of her life to come and sweep her away
If you ask her to dance
She'll tell you that she?s in no hurry
'Cause the fear in her heart
Says she'd rather be lonely than sorry
She searches the faces
As they walk through the door
And she asks herself
What am I doing this for
'Cause half of her's praying that someone will bring
back the thrill
And the other half's scared
That somebody will
Chorus
Maybe some night he'll walk through that door
Will she recognize what she's waiting for
Chorus
'Cause the fear in her heart says
She'd rather be lonely than sorry
Maybe some night he'll walk through that door
Will she recognize what she's waiting for
