The Haunted Dancefloor

from Spook Frequency by Villareal

/

about

'Haunted Dancefloor' was written after I went to watch a mates band play in London. There was only about ten people in the room and this one punk guy was trying to throw himself around on his own with nobody to mosh with. Hence the lyric 'old punks don't die they just end up dancing on their own'. This is a fave tune to some of our friends and fans and has been covered by Thomas White from Electric Soft Parade. His band supported my LUMINA outfit when they were about ten years old.
Thanks Thom!

lyrics

It's true what they say
Time will slip away
And you cant bring it back
It's always there in your mind

Chorus

You can go where you want
But you can never go back
And old hopes they don't die
They just end up living on their own

You live the next thing
Hold on to your dream
'Til one day it's all gone
Wake up it;s time for you to move

You can go where you want
But you can never go back
And old Punks they don't die
They just end up dancing on their own

You can go where you want...


(Words & Music Simon Parker)
