| The first time I saw you
|
| You were waitin' tables at the corner diner
|
| I said to myself
|
| Never seen a woman look any finer
|
| From that moment on
|
| I was stone cold gone
|
| You would be forever in my mind
|
| Now somewhere in the neon lights
|
| I’m holdin' on for dear life
|
| Rockin' in the arms of your memory tonight
|
| It was San Francisco
|
| Silly sutis and white ties by the bay
|
| You appeared with your papa
|
| Tears were rolin' down your mother’s face
|
| Everyone was happy
|
| Showered by well wishers as we drove away
|
| Now somewhere in the neon lights
|
| I’m holdin' on for dear life
|
| Rockin' in the arms of your memory tonight
|
| I’m living but dying
|
| I’m laughing but crying
|
| Somebody tell me it will be alright
|
| I bought it for your birthday
|
| God you looked so lovely in that dress
|
| I took you to a party
|
| Or was it to a night club I forget
|
| Been twenty years and counting
|
| I’m drowning in your love a little more each day
|
| Now somewhere in the neon lights
|
| I’m holdin' on for dear life
|
| Rockin' in the arms of your memory tonight
|
| Now somewhere in the neon lights
|
| I’m holdin' on for dear life
|
| Rockin' in the arms of your memory tonight |
