[Verse 1] I was reminiscing just the other day While having coffee all alone, and Lord, it took me away Back to a first-glance feeling on New York time Back when you fit my poems like a perfect rhyme Took off faster than a green light, go Hey, you skip the conversation when you already know I left a note on the door with a joke we'd made And that was the first day
[Chorus] And darling, it was good Never looking down And right there where we stood Was holy ground
[Verse 2] Spinning like a girl in a brand new dress We had this big wide city all to ourselves We blocked the noise with the sound of,"I need you" And for the first time, I had something to lose And I guess we fell apart in the usual way And the story's got dust on every page But sometimes, I wonder how you think about it now And I see your face in every crowd
[Chorus] 'Cause darling, it was good Never looking down And right there where we stood Was holy ground
[Hook] Tonight, I'm gonna dance For all that we've been through But I don't wanna dance If I'm not dancing with you Tonight, I'm gonna dance Like you were in this room But I don't wanna dance If I'm not dancing with you
[Chorus] It was good Never looking down And right there where we stood Was holy ground
[Outro] Tonight, I'm gonna dance For all that we've been through But I don't wanna dance If I'm not dancing with you Tonight, I'm gonna dance Like you were in this room But I don't wanna dance If I'm not dancing with you
