Remember
Remember that time
Oh that smile
that beautiful smile
that little playful smirk
tugging at my shirt
waiting for me to ask you to dance
That little blue skirt
Cashmere sweater
Your cheeks, bright red rouge
batting your long silk eyelashes at me
You were a flirt
Remember that time
My hands so clammy
My heart a flutter
Finally asking you to dance
You took my hand
Squeezing so tight
Oh you were the perfect sight
How can I not remember
or can I ever forget
that midnight blue polo shirt
and that baseball hat
It seems not long ago
I wore flowers in my hair
Ahh, that lavender breeze
Close by, a carousel
You raised your brow many a time
I swear I caught you stare
It seems not long ago
but it's been thirty years or so
when your steady hand
got hold of my own
And i never let it go
I can still recall that winsome grin
and butterflies churning within
You asked me if I wanted to dance
Stole my heart away
and put me in a trance
It seems not long ago
but its been thirty years or so
Your tremerous hand got hold of my own
and I never let it go, no i never let it go
