Something Going On

words and music by John Eddie

I gotta dance just to keep from crying
I'm in a trance til the sun goes down
Well living lonelys kissin up to dying
and I'm not ready for no whole in the ground
I wanna go where the lights are pretty
now where the girls put the lights to shame
Well mister this old heart can get a brand new start
it's losin but it's still in the game
well you can count me among the wounded
but I'm a stranger to the dead and gone

Chorus:
Somethings goin on
somewhere
somebody's out there someplace else
somethings goin on somewhere
somebody's dancing uh hun
I'm dancing by my self

I bet some drop dead honey is decked out
She's turnin heads like a head on wreck
The kind of girl the whole world checks out
Honey I ain't met yet
I can feel her and she's out there waiting
Gonna steal her from her Daddy's heart
And know when we first kiss I guarentee you this
We'll kiss until death do us part
And when she asks about the big forever
I say baby make it twice that long

Chorus

I'm wide awake drivin through the dead night
Whole lotta livin I was meant to do
I see a couple kissing at the red light
My jealous heart says this night ain't through
Lord don't the sun come up fast
It's the lonely nights that last too long
There's something going on

Well now my thoughts drift a way to a young girl
waking up and watching her get dressed
and thinking somethings died
and wishing I knew why
all she said was it's for the best
Just put your flowers on the band stand baby
A lovers gate is what I'm dancing on

Chorus

Somethings going on
Something
Somethings going on
Something
Somethings going on
Something
Something's going on
