We sway
Grabbed her by the hips and hand
Then off we went
Across the sanded floor
She said, that's not sand, it's salt
It will get worn like we did before
I only wanna dance with you
Every time I try
We only get an hour or so
It's time to get personal
We've got these times of our lives
Let’s take this time to let it show
‘Cause these are ours
‘Cause these are ours
We sway
The moon shines down
And everybody's safe
Christmas lights all day
And rightly so
‘Cause we feel high as fuck
And everything is good
Good to go
I watch the snow fall down
Feels great to be honest
Forget about the trouble
Forget about the drama
‘Cause I ain't Casanova, baby
I can dance for days
But this time with you
Is just amazing in so many ways
I only wanna dance with you
Every time I try
We only get an hour or so
It's time to get personal
We've got these times of our lives
Let’s take this time to let it show
‘Cause these are ours
‘Cause these are ours
We'll stay until we want to
That's how we used to be
And we never fell apart
And we’ll stay here until we want to
Now we just sway
(Come on, dance with me)
(Dance with me)
(Just dance with me)
‘Cause these are ours
‘Cause these are ours
Yeah, these are ours
Yeah, these are ours
Yeah, these are ours
‘Cause these are ours
Yeah, these are ours
‘Cause these are ours
(We sway
We sway)
