It was a hot summer night
I saw you out at the local bar
You looked at me and it felt right
I wondered how you are
You walked over and asked "how have you been"
I said "it's nice to see you again"
We talked a short time
And boy did I pine
I was told of a new girl
I smiled and listened
But the whole I time I wanted to hurl
A slow dance started to play
You said "May I"
You took a hold of my hand
I could've swore
It was just the two of us out on that dance floor.
A second dance followed the first
We danced on and on
My palms were sweaty
My knees were shaking
And all I was thinking
My heart is yours for the taking
The song came to an end
So didn't that night
We bid our farewells
Said goodnight and sleep tight
I wanted to tell you that night
How I was feeling
It didn't seem right
You talked of a new girl
And all I wanted to do was hurl
