Everyone was dancing or reeling
And the band was playing with feeling
While the rest of the world was rocking
You and I were sitting there talking
Watching all of the people
Watching all of the sky fall down
Said that you were always too shy
And everything kept passing you by
While the rest of the world was rocking
You and I kept sitting there talking
Watching all of the people
Watching all of the sky fall down
A new year was lighting the sky
And all you did was sit there and cry
And while the rest of the world was rocking
You and I kept sitting there talking
Watching all of the people
Watching all of the sky fall
Watching all of the people
Watching all of the sky fall down
