I don’t wanna say goodbye.
I just wanna spend my night with you.
How’my gonna catch your eye?
I don’t know if I can do this.
I will never understand
How no one was there to hold your hand.
Now, I’m gonna lose a chance.
I just wanna ask you for this dance.
‘Cause I don’t wanna dance alone tonight.
No, I don’t wanna dance alone tonight.
Hands are shaking. I’m okay.
Got this feeling I’m just miles away.
Heart is racing; You’re to blame.
I can’t seem to find the words to say.
I will never understand
How no one was there to hold your hand.
Now, I’m gonna lose a chance.
I just wanna ask you for this dance.
‘Cause I don’t wanna dance alone tonight.
No, I don’t wanna dance alone tonight.
I don’t wanna; I don’t wanna;
I don’t wanna dance alone tonight.
I don’t wanna; I don’t wanna;
I don’t wanna dance alone tonight.
Tell me if you’re scared, dear,
We can be the same.
Tell me all your stories.
Let me know your name.
Don’t walk out that door, dear,
It will be okay.
Your heart is all I ask for;
Let’s dance the night away.
‘Cause I don’t wanna dance alone tonight.
I don’t wanna dance alone tonight.
I don’t wanna dance alone. (Come be with me)
I don’t wanna dance alone tonight.
I don’t wanna dance alone. (Please stay with me)
I don’t wanna dance alone tonight.
I don’t wanna dance alone. (Ah, ah, ah ah)
I don’t wanna dance alone tonight.
(Ah, ah, ah, ah)
No, I don’t wanna dance alone tonight.
I don’t wanna dance alone.
‘Cause I don’t wanna dance alone tonight.
I don’t wanna dance alone.
No, I don’t wanna dance alone tonight.
I don’t wanna; (Ah ah ah ah) I don’t wanna;
I don’t wanna dance alone tonight.
I don’t wanna; (Ah ah ah ah) I don’t wanna;
I don’t wanna dance alone tonight.
it's such a beautiful album of grieving and loss and acceptance. it speaks to a particular kind of grief -- not a grieving of one who is lost, but the grieving for one who is still present and still causing pain. i love the last song most because while it could end in pain, or end with the narrators decision to permanently push this person out of their life and that would be justified, it doesn't. instead, it offers something. what is offered? acceptance. hope. and a chance for redemption janmisha
The Oh Hellos sind was besonderes für mich. Ich mag die Wechsel zwischen den ruhigen, atmospherischen Passagen und den rhythmischen Passagen. Ich mag wie ihr Spannung aufbaut. Ich mag die Stimme von Maggie und Tyler. Ich mage den unisono Gesang der ganzen Band. Ich wünsche mir eine neue Produktion von The Oh Hellos und Surfjan Stevens; und eine Tour mit einem Konzert im Westen von Deutschland. Kert Goéland
