[Verse 1]
Standin' beside of the ocean
Lookin' across the water
Everything is beautiful here
But I still don't feel like I oughta
Things we wanted
Not so long ago
I got 'em all now, baby
But I ain't got you no more

[Chorus]
But I remember
The way you held me
And all the sweet things you used to say
When we were two young lovers
Dancin' the night away

[Verse 2]
I remember everything
Dresses you used to wear
You were so light and graceful
You seem to float right through the air
Me, I looked so funny dancin'
But you loved me anyhow
Oh, I wish I could find somebody
That would love me like that now
[Chorus]
But I remember
The way you held me
And all the sweet things you used to say
When we were two young lovers
Dancin' the night away
(Ah-ha, woo)

[Verse 3]
Standin' beside of the ocean
Lookin' out across the bay
I should look for companionship
But it just gets in my way
The lights are flickerin'
All along the shore
I see people dancin' there
But I just don't dance no more

[Chorus]
Because I remember
The way you held me
And all the sweet things you used to say
When we were two young lovers
Dancin' the night away

[Outro]
Let me see you dance
Let me see you dance
Oh, baby, let me see you dance
I want to see you dance
Let me see you dance one more time
Oh, baby, let me see you dance, dance, dance
I want to see you dance (Let me see you dance)
Let me see you dance (I want to see you dance now)
Oh, baby, let me see you dance
I wanna see you dance (Let me see you dance)
Dance (I want to see you dance now)
Oh, baby, let me see you dance
Just one more time
I wanna see you dance the night away (Let me see you dance)
Oh, let me see you dance now (I want to see you dance now)
Oh, baby, let me see you dance
One more time
I gotta see you dance now (Let me see you dance)
In that pretty red dress (I want to see you dance now)
I remember the way you danced next to me (Oh, baby, let me see you dance)
Ah, let me see you dance (Let me see you dance)
Let me see you dance (I want to see you dance now)
Oh, baby, let me see you dance
