She is sublimation
She is the essence of thee

I'm dancing barefoot
Headed for a spin
Some strange strange music drags me in
Makes me come up like some heroin

She is recreation
She intoxicated by thee
She has the slow sensation that
He is levitating with she
Here I go when I don't know why
I spin so ceaselessly
'Til I lose my sense of gravity
[Chorus]
I'm dancing barefoot
Heading for a spin
Some strange music drives me on
Makes me come up like some heroin
