Lyrics:

  1. I was minding my own business when she walked up and took me by the hand;
    She looked me in the eye and then she told me she was looking for a man;
    A man to have and hold, a man whose given word would always stand;
    Then I crossed my heart and hoped to die, and told her every lie at my command.

  2. Wondering where I am tonight, I’m looking through my memory’s lost and found;
    Walking this old tightrope just to keep myself from tumbling to the ground;
    I see leaves and trees and lives and tears, they’re falling all around,
    So I’m going on back home again, the folks back there won’t let me down.

Refrain:
Is this real, could it be real, I wonder;
Either way it's just the same to me
But when it’s gone, is it really gone forever?
And if it’s gone, is it gone for good?

  1. There’s music in the air tonight, and party dresses blowing in the breeze Favorite songs from long ago, and my heart’s same old used-to-be;
    We danced, we talked, we laughed, we cried, and all night long the moon ands stars agreed;
    That from that day, their light would shine for all to see.

Repeat refrain
