about

Written for a chance bar encounter.

lyrics

I won your heart
With a drink from the bar
And a little luck as the band began to play

I was looking good
In a worn out checkered shirt
Trying to find the words to make you wanna stay

And I don't know a thing about you
How do you hold my heart the way you do?
But this bar is closing soon
Does that mean our love is closing too?

When I saw the chance
I took you by the hand
And led you to the dance to shake the night away

Twirling you around
Over, under, upside down
There's something here we found something we became

And I don't know a thing about you
How do you hold my heart the way you do?
But this dance is ending soon
Does that mean our love is ending too?

I had your heart
For a drink at the bar
And a little luck as the band began to play
