[Verse 1]
I turn up to the show
The air is loud, it's crowded
Everyone's there, they think I want them
I don't want them, I don't care
They're wondering what they could've made of me
They're thinking, will I make it to the ballroom in time?
Will I cross the finish line?
[Chorus]
There's all these people in the room
And I just wanna be alone
All these people in the room
I just wanna be alone with you
[Verse 2]
Midnight on the dance floor
It's a simple feeling, you're a simple man
Not gonna wait around here
Tryna make you understand
And to all the creatures in the night
I know some things were always going to burn
'Cause all our stars were born to die
I'm not gonna die tonight
[Chorus]
There's all these people in the room
And I just wanna be alone
All these people in the room
I just wanna be alone with you
I should've told you
There is nowhere to go from here
I should've told you
There is nowhere to go from here
[Bridge]
(I see you dancing to me)
(I see you dancing to me now)
Don't you waste it, dance a little closer
Put your fear in your pocket, give it up a little more
(I see you dancing to me)
(I see you dancing to me now)
Don't you waste it, dance a little closer
Put your fear in your pocket
(I see you dancing to me)
(I see you dancing to me now)
[Chorus]
All these people in the room
And I just wanna be alone
All these people in the room
I just wanna be alone with you
I should've told you
There is nowhere to go from here
I should've told you
There is nowhere to go from here
[Outro]
(I, I, I just wanna be alone)
I should've told you
There is nowhere to go from here
(I, I, I just wanna be alone)
I should've told you
There is nowhere to go from here
(I, I, I just wanna be alone)
I should've told you
There is nowhere to go from here
(I, I, I just wanna be alone with you)

In an interview with Pile Rats, she said:
Ballroom is a song I wrote over many years too, it began with the bones of the song – the verses and the chorus. I kept seeing someone I liked in rooms full of people, so much noise and banter and stuff I didn’t care about. Life at the time felt like that t...
