    Story Behind the Song
    One of the first songs I wrote and recorded - as you may be able to tell from the less-than-perfect guitar playing. It was recorded "lo-tech" live in one take, with a single mic placed about a metre away from me to pick up both guitar and vocals.

    Lyrics
    (Dancing in) The Black Room



    Verse 1:

    There’s a girl I know who only shows at night

    She dances on her own like a bird in flight

    Spinning like a dervish, her lips move in a prayer

    I hope she gets her wish; I hope she gets her share



    Chorus:

    Baby thinks she’s cool, dancing on her own

    With the boys all watching, she won’t go home

    Tonight, she won’t go home, tonight

    She’s dancing alone, tonight, she won’t go home,

    She’s dancing in The Black Room alone



    Verse 2:

    I took her home one night just to ask her why

    She’s crying all the time; she said “I don’t know why”

    I asked her for a smile and she just turned away

    I waited for a while then night turned into day

    And she just disappeared



    Repeat chorus



    Bridge:

    She’s running from those shadows

    She’s running from those shadows

    Again



    Repeat chorus



    Outro:

    Dancing in The Black Room alone

    Dancing in The Black Room alone
