Here I am with some time on my hands
And I haven't got plans for a minute or two
Something easy crosses my mind and I recall when love
was new...
You went your way and I went mine
And our lives seldom cross but when they do
Can't help remembering all of the times
When love was new, when love was you...
We were dancing in the dark (dancing in the dark)
Just a couple of fools
Holding you closely, breaking all the rules
Doesn't everything get colored
by those first loves' blues...
I'm not lonely my life's quite complete
And my lady is sweet, my children are fine
Just in passing you crossed my mind
And I recall, all about the time...
We were dancing in the dark (dancing in the dark)
Just a couple of fools
Holding you closely, breaking all the rules
Doesn't everything get colored
by those first loves' blues...
Something bout the past is quite amusing
You can change it anyway you please
As I'm sitting here and thinking of you, do you ever
think of me...
We were dancing in the dark (dancing in the dark)
Just a couple of fools
Holding you closely, breaking all the rules
Doesn't everything get colored
by those first loves' blues...
Everything get colored
by those first loves' blues...
