Lyrics

(E)I was rem in isc in’ just the oth er day while hav ing cof fee all a lone and, Lord, it took me a way back to a (Asus2)first glance feel ing on New York time, back when you fit my po ems like a per fect rhyme.

(E)Took off fast er than a green light go.

Yeah, you skip the con ver sa tion when you al read y know I left a (C#m7)note on the door with a joke we’d made and (Asus2)that was the first day.

And (B)dar ling, (C#m7)it was (A)good

(B)nev er (C#m7)look ing (Asus2)down.

And (B)right there (C#m7)where we (A)stood

was ho ly ground.

(E5)Spin ning like a girl in a brand new dress, we had this big wide ci ty all to our selves.

We block the (Asus2)noise with the sound of “I need you.” And for the first time I had some thin’ to lose.

And I (E)guess we fell a part in the us u al way and the sto ry’s got dust on ev er y page.

But some (C#m7)times I won der how you think a bout it now.

And I (Asus2)see your face in ev ’ry crowd.

’Cause (B)dar ling, (C#m7)it was (A)good

(B)nev er (C#m7)look ing (A)down.

And (B)right there (C#m7)where we (A)stood

was ho ly ground.

To night I’m gon na dance

for all that we’ve been through.

But I don’t want to dance if I’m not danc ing with you.

To night I’m gon na dance like you were in this room.

But I don’t want to dance if I’m not danc ing with (B)you.

(C#m7)It was (A)good

(B)nev er (C#m7)look ing (A)down.

And (B)right there (C#m7)where we (A)stood

was ho ly ground.

To night I’m gon na dance for all that we’ve been through.

But I don’t want to dance if I’m not danc ing with you.

To night I’m gon na dance like you were in this room.

But I don’t want to dance if I’m not danc ing with (B)you.

(C#m7)It was if I’m not danc ing with you.
