Standing beside the ocean
Looking 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 them all now
But I ain't got her no more

And I remember
The way she held me
And all the sweet things she used to say
When we were two young lovers
Dancing the night away

I remember everything
Dresses she used to wear
She looked so light and graceful
Just seemed to float right through the air
I Looked so funny dancing
But she loved me anyhow
I guess I could find somebody to love me like that now

Standing beside the ocean
Looking across the bay
I should look for companionship
But it just gets in my way
Lights are flickering
All along the shore
People are dancing over there
But I don't dance no more

Let me see you dance
Let me see you dance
Oh baby let me see you dance
