She don't know how to tell him He don't know how to tell her This just ain't working no more She don't know how he'll take it He don't know how she'll take it They just know one things for sure It's just a matter of time Till the cold truth comes out Some things you just can't dance around So they sway to the left and they sway to the right And they're hurting like hell so they both close their eyes Like they don't see it, like they ain't sinking Out there slow dancing on the Titanic tonight Another song contemplating What to say when to say it They both know it won't be long So they keep holding on And they sway to the left and they sway to the right And they're hurting like hell so they both close their eyes Like they don't see it, like they ain't sinking Out there slow dancing on the Titanic tonight Somethings bound to give Somethings bound to break But they're both going down either way So they sway to the left and they sway to the right And they're hurting like hell so they both close their eyes Like they don't see it, like they ain't sinking Out there slow dancing on the Titanic Like they still have it Hell it's almost tragic Out there slow dancing on the Titanic tonight
