Tap dancing, falling over my own two feet
Hoping that you like what you see
In

I'm tap dancing, making up the moves as I go along
Forgetting all the words to my song
Until I cry

Just doing what I can for you to like me
Hiding the clown I am deep down inside me

Don't look too closely, just clap your hands
Don't say you know me, just
Let me tap dance for you
Let me tap dance for you

Tap dancing over all the marbles on the floor
Forgetting that I might be something more than a smile
I'm tap dancing for too much
Maybe I should just give it up for

And let the curtain fall and face the ugly
Shouldn't at all for you to love me

Don't look too closely, just clap your hands
Don't say you know me, just
Let me tap dance for you
Let me tap dance for you

I really wanna take off these shoes
But I'm afraid of the truth
That I'm not enough for you

So don't look too closely, just understand
Don't say you know me
Let me tap dance for you
Let me tap dance for you

I'm gonna tap dance for you
Tap dance
For you
