|
The bar was empty |
|
I was sweeping up the floor |
|
That's when she walked in |
|
I said, \"I'm sorry but we're closed\" |
|
And she said \"I know, |
|
But I'm afraid I left my purse\" |
|
I said, \"I put one back behind the bar |
|
I bet it's probably yours\" |
|
And the next thing that I knew |
|
There we were, lost in conversation |
|
And before I handed her her purse |
|
I said, \"You'll only get this back on one condition\" |
|
And we danced |
|
Out there on that empty hardwood floor |
|
The chairs up and the lights turned way down low |
|
The music played, we held each other close |
|
And we danced |
|
And from that moment |
|
There was never any doubt |
|
I had found the one |
|
That I had always dreamed about |
|
And then one evenin' |
|
When she stopped by after work |
|
I pulled a diamond ring out of the pocket of my shirt |
|
And as her eyes filled up with tears |
|
She said, \"This is the last thing I expected\" |
|
And then she took me by the hand |
|
And said, \"I'll only marry you on one condition\" |
|
And we danced |
|
Out there on that empty hardwood floor |
|
The chairs up and the lights turned way down low |
|
The music played, we held each other close |
|
And we danced |
|
Like no one else had ever danced before |
|
I can't explain what happened on that floor |
|
But the music played |
|
We held each other close |
|
And we danced |
|
Yeah, we danced |
