Lyrics
The time is now to make amends
It's celebration time, good friends
And who knows when we all will meet again
So let's pretend
That we are strangers, you and I
I'll be awkward, you'll be shy
You catch me staring at ya starry-eyed
And you'll smile
I'm wondering if all the colours I've just seen
Has triggered something deep from in my memories
Or was I dreaming?
Well I'm a simple, honest man
Everyday do what I can
But I could never know just where to stand
In your plans
We'd be so secret we could hide it from ourselves
So when we wake tomorrow we could never tell
If we were dreaming
Just dreaming
CHORUS
The lights will dim, the music slows
The king and queen will strike their pose
As everybody stops in time
And with their backs unto us all
It's you and me alone once more
Hold my breath and swallow pride
And pray that I'm not stepping out of line
Would it be too much to dance with me tonight?
CHORUS 2
And I'll swear to you once more that I won't lie
And even though in times before we've said goodbyes
I still falter at the twinkle in your eyes
Would it be too much to dance with me tonight?
