lyrics

Ooh, ooh ooh ooh,
Ooh, ooh ooh ooh,
Ooh, ooh ooh ooh,
Dance’n through a minefield.
Ooh, ooh ooh ooh,
Ooh, ooh ooh ooh,
Dance’n through a minefield.
Ooh, ooh ooh ooh,
Ooh, ooh ooh ooh,
Dance’n through a minefield.
Ooh, ooh ooh ooh,
Dance’n through a minefield.
Searchin’ for solid ground.
So my friend,
Words have failed us yet again.
You have your way of think’n, I have
mine.
Have to be so damn careful
Not to cross the line.
What we see as certain,
Tomorrow blurs with time.
Can you say enough
To fear and suspicion?
Have we had enough
Of boldface lies?
Have you had enough
Of toxic visions
That cloud your mind?
Dancing through a minefield.
Dancing through a minefield.
So my friend,
Here we are again.
You wave your flag,
It’s the same as mine.
Will you see me?
Will I see you?
God forgive us all
If we don’t see right through.
Dancing through a minefield. (Repeats)
