(jimmy buffet, michael utley, will jennings)

They can come take it all away
Break you heart by the light of day
Drown your love in a distant bay so lonely

See the ships heading for the rocks
See the time melting over the clocks
Theres a light shadows all the rocks that saves me
It saves me

Thats why I wander and follow la vie dansante
On the night wind that takes me just where I want
Thats all I want
La vie dansante

Miss the beat if you close your eyes
Every night wears a new disguise
And I live when a new surprise surrenders

Feel it all with a willing heart
Every stop, theres a place to start
If you know how to play the part with feeling
I play with feeling

Why dont you wander and follow la vie dansante
On the night wind that takes you just where you want
Thats all you want

La vie dansante

Thats why I wander and follow la vie dansante
On the night wind that takes me just where I want
Thats all I want
La vie dansante
