I Like To Dance Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We met in 2004
He waited for me at the door
He was nervous, looked around
And then he kissed me, I was found
I'm mostly like everyone else
My friends are kind, I'm in good health
I like to dance when I'm at home
I like to dance

[Verse 2]
We were so in love
My friends were jealous of me
He held me close, I felt at home
And I had always felt alone
And he got angry sometimes
He's only angry sometimes
He shouts at me and I shout back
I have always been like that

[Refrain]
I just wish he'd stop
I just wish he'd stop
I just wish he'd stop

[Verse 3]
The first time he pushed me over
He walked past, he smashed my phone
I didn't know what to say next
Do you know what you would do next?
We'd been together for six years
We'd held each other through our tears
I yelled at him, he cried in fear
He didn't want to be like this

[Refrain]
I just wish he'd stop
I just wish he'd stop
I just wish he'd stop

[Verse 4]
Please don't feel sorry for me
I don't want your pity
I want to run through rivers and smile
I want to sing right through the night
You scream, "Why don't you leave?!"
My kids are two and three
I just can't pay for what they need
We both know he'd find me

[Refrain]
I just wish he'd stop hitting me

[Verse 5]
I get so scared of what to show
I'm pretty sure some of my friends know
My mum says I look different now
She says I don't look like myself
I sometimes think, if he'd left
I could be a doctor or an artist
People always say I'm smart
I could go back to school and start again

[Chorus]
I'm like everyone else
I'm mostly like everyone else
I'm mostly like everyone else
I'm mostly like everyone else
I like to dance when I'm alone
I like to dance when I'm at home
I like to dance when I'm at home
I like to dance

“I went to a BBQ and I was chatting to a judge. He told me about one of his cases that had shaken him up a bit. A woman had come in to court six months after she’d been beaten up by her boyfriend.
