Reminiscing

Friday night, it was late

I was walking you home

We got down to the gate

and I was dreaming of the night

Would it turn out right?

How to tell you, girl

I wanna build my world around you

Tell you that it's true

I wanna make you understand

I'm talking about a lifetime plan

That's the way it began

We were hand-in-hand

Glenn Miller's band was better than before

We yelled and screamed for more

And the Porter tune (Night and Day)

made us dance across the room

It ended all too soon

And on the way back home

I promised you'd never be alone

Hurry, don't be late

I can hardly wait

I said to myself when we're old

We'll go dancing in the dark

walking through the park and reminiscing

Friday night, it was late

I was walking you home

We got down to the gate

And I was dreaming of the night

Would it turn out right?

Now as the years roll on

Each time we hear our favorite song

The memories come along

Older times we're missing

Spending the hours reminiscing

Hurry, don't be late

I can hardly wait

I said to myself when we're old

We'll go dancing in the dark

walking through the park and reminiscing
