Gavin DeGraw Picture
As the son of a guitar player/singer and the younger brother of recording artist Joey DeGraw, Gavin DeGraw's destiny was set in stone. He began to take piano lessons at the early age of eight, singing with the family the whole time. In the early years, Gavin and Joey played together in a cover band, with the occasional fatherly sit in. Encouraged by his brother, Gavin began to write his own songs at the age of about 16. He then attended the popular Berklee school of music for a short time before realizing it felt "restricting".

Dancin Shoes Lyrics

Gavin DeGraw

It's so nice to see you
Can we sit and talk for awhile
I have searched forever
I can't imagine anything better
Kids up on the stairway
Couples on the sidewalk squares
If I get to your heart soon
I'll call a perfect afternoon

Chorus:
Won't you call my number
Don't push by, don't hesitate
Wake me from this slumber
Rush me but leave time to wait>
Checkmate on my shoulder
I'm tired of this win or lose
Well I'm no knight in shining armor
But I'm no pair of dancing shoes
I'm no pair of dancing shoes

My patience went away
Take me with you
You keep me holding on
Nothing's understood
You're so confusing
Tell it to me straight

Chorus

Rush me but leave time to wait
I've got nothing left to lose
I'm no pair of dancing shoes
I've got nothing left to lose
I'm no pair of dancing shoes
I've got nothing left to lose
I'm no pair of dancing shoes
I've got nothing left to lose
But I'm no pair of dancing shoes
