lyrics

I bear scars you don't care to see,
They're not in clear view but they're so dear to me
And those are scars I would not remove
for that I have loved and lost they are my proof

And if we go out dancing tonight, I want you to know that it's alright,
You can dance with whoever you want to, it's fine,
I am not yours, and you are not mine.

She watches him watch her crossing the floor
And we all know you'd love to have kissed her once more
But that auld love was never to be: You were not yourself and she was not me,
You were not yourself, and I set you free.

So if we go out dancing tonight, I want you to know that it's alright:
You can dance with whoever you want to, it's fine,
I am not yours, and you are not mine,
I am not yours and you are not mine,
I am not yours and you are not mine.

Heartbreak and liquor play games inside your head
Signs are made, and signs are misread,
and I'm sorry my boy, but I have been here before,
and you bear the markings of a boy I could adore;
And I will only break your heart in turn, and that is sure,
So if we're dancing I'm best left ignored.

And if we go out dancing tonight, I want you to know
It's fine, it's alright:
You can dance with whoever you want to, it's fine,
I am not yours, and you are not mine x 5
So if I am not yours, then you are not mine,
No if I am not yours, then you are not mine,
Now if I am not yours then you are not mine
So if I am not yours therefore you are not mine.
