Alt hvad hun ville var at danse
All she wanted was to dance
Natten ung og smuk og usandsynlig
The night is young and beautiful and improbable
Gemt i sin elskedes arme
Hidden in her loved one's arms
Tæt på, ligeved og næsten fri
Nearly, about to, and almost free
Men fyren, som var hendes kærlighed
But the guy who was her love
Sad midt i en alvorlig diskussion
Was in the middle of a serious discussion
Om ting af væsentlig og stor betydning
About things of significant and great importance
Som inderst inde ikke angår nogen
Which actually weren't anyone's business
Det eneste hun ville var
The only thing she wanted was
At danse bare en enkelt nat
To dance, just for a single night
Drømme uden at vågne op igen
Dream without waking up again
Og nogen syn's måske, det var lidt synd
And some might think that it's kind of sad
Og andre skreg af grin
And others laughed loudly
Langt de fleste lod som ingenting
Far the most pretended nothing was wrong
Og festen var en lang og ensom tale
And the party was a long and lonely conversation
Hvor ingen hørte, hva' hinanden sagde
Where no one listened to what one another said
Alt hva' hun ville var at danse
All she wanted was to dance
Og bare slippe ud derfra
And just get out of there
Det eneste hun ville var
The only thing she wanted was
At leve bare en enkelt nat
To dance, just for a single night
Drømme uden at vågne op igen
Dream without waking up again
Og nogen syn's måske, det var lidt synd
And some might think that it's kind of sad
Og andre skreg af grin
And others laughed loudly
Langt de fleste lod som ingenting
Far the most pretended nothing was wrong
Så dansede hun pludselig der på gulvet
Then she suddenly danced on the floor
Lidt usikker, alene og forladt
A little uncertain, lonely, and abandoned
Og uden at nogen rigtig så det
And without anyone actually seeing it
Forsvandt hun i den iskolde nat
She disappeared in the icy night
Alt hvad hun ville var at danse
All she wanted was to dance
Glemme alting, mens det stadig sker
Forget everything as it was happening
Flygte i sin elskedes arme
Run away in her loved one's arms
Hviske ord, som ingen husker mer'
Whisper words which no one remembers anymore
Det eneste hun ville var
The only thing she wanted was
At leve bare en enkelt gang
To live, just for once
Drømme uden at vågne op igen
Dream without waking up again
Og nogen syn's måske, det var lidt synd
And some might think that it's kind of sad
Og andre skreg af grin
And others laughed loudly
Langt de fleste lod som ingenting
Far the most pretended nothing was wrong
