Raised with a Bible in your hand, you met your parents' strict demands,
And now that sweet, religious child is like a hurricane gone wild.

And you're dancing...dancing with danger,
Lies from a stranger waltz inside your head,
And you've got your back to the one who really loves you,
But you can't stop because you can't see what's ahead.

"No liquor" and "no cigarettes" are rules you're learning to forget,
It's not so much the outward part, 'cause God is looking at your heart.

And you're dancing...dancing with danger,
Lies from a stranger waltz inside your head,
Oh, and you've got your back to the one who really loves you,
But you can't stop because you can't see what's ahead.

You've danced yourself out on a ledge; your dreams are falling off the edge,
God never wanted it that way; he wants to shake your fears away.

And you're dancing...dancing with danger,
Lies from a stranger waltz inside your head,
Oh, and you've got your back to the one who really loves you,
But you can't stop because you can't see what's ahead,
Oh, and you're dancing...dancing with danger,
Lies from a stranger waltz inside your head,
Oh, and you've got your back to the one who really loves you,
