So I asked her to dance
She said she wasn't able
And all her friends laughed
She was just trying to be gentle
And so we danced
Round and round in circles
Not of that love song
But our very own circles

Slowset is dead
No more love on the dance floor
Unless you're out of your head
That's all that we went for

So she asked me to dance
I did but I wasn't able
Oh where to put your hands
When there's so much food on the table

Slowset is dead
No more love on the dance floor
Unless you're out of your head..
That's all that we went for

What do you say
When she's in your arms and you're going round in those circles...
When both of you know that you've risen to the occasion...
When her friend comes along and you know that she's been rescued...
When you're eternal flame has been drowned by her...
Purple rain, purple rain, purple rain
Take my breath away, take my breath away
And I can't live.. take my breath away
