My affection is the focus of it all      Beat of life   Beat of life      Beat of life      Did you know that I felt you move apart?      She says to me   "Do you know that I've felt you move apart?"   Then I say   "Imagination is a silly game we play"      And then I stare into her eyes   Think and stop to realize   That this is more than she could hope to know   And she said      She says   "Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?"   She says   "Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?"   (Beat of life)      I call her house   I get an answer on the damned machine again   She's out too late   And not a call to tell me where she'll be tonight      And then I start to think and realize   The way she acts is only parts   Of a violent game we have to play   I fear      She says   "Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?"   (Do you dance?)   She says   "Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?"   (Do you dance?)   (Beat of life)      She says   "Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?"   "Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?"   (Do you dance?)      Here we go      My affection is the focus of it all      I say to her   "Why can't you see that we evade the fall?"   She says to me   That her affection is the focus of it all      And then I take her in my arms   And it seems to go away   The sickening feeling that I always cultivate   When she says      She says   "Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?"   (Do you dance?)   She says   "Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?"   (Do you dance?)      She says   "Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?"   (Do you dance?)   She says   "Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?"   (Do you dance?)      She says   She says      Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?   Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?   Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?   Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?   (Do you dance?)
