Dances In Grange Halls

I've had these words
On the tips of my fingers
For as long as I can remember
You've had those bright eyes
In those pictures you'd take
Ever since you were young

And when the record comes on
Starts playing our favorite song
We can dance in your parents living room
Collapse into each others arms
And just fade away

I've had these words
Running through my veins
Ever since I first had that pain
You've had those bright eyes
Since I can recall
Ever since you were young

So long Bobby Jean
Save a dance for me
