Tap Dancing - Nelly Furtado

Tap dancing, falling over my own two feet

Hoping that you like what you see in disguise

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 think you know me, just cue the band

Let me tap dance for you

Let me tap dance for you

Tap dancing over all the marks on the floor

Pretending that I might be something more than a smile

I’m tap dancing, maybe I’m asking for too much

Maybe I should just give it up for a while

And let the curtain fall

And face the ugly

I shouldn’t have to dance at all

For you to love me

Don’t look too closely, just clap your hands

Don’t think you know me, just cue the band

And 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

Don’t look too closely, just understand

No need to judge me, just be a fan

Let me tap dance for you

Let me tap dance for you

I’m gonna tap dance for you

Tap dance, for you
