Dancin' Again
Lyrics
Now that you’re back home
We will go dancing again
We’ll close our eyes
And smile as the music begins

You will hold me close
I’ll get lost in your arms
Just like when we met
I’ll give in to your charms

Now that you’re back home
I can rest easy at last
The fears that kept me awake
Are all in the past

You will hold me close
I’ll get lost in your arms
We will dance again
I’ll give in to your charms

You may not be
How I remember you
But I prayed for this day
For so long

And now you’ve returned
So different yet still the same
And I wonder
If I’ll be as strong
