[F#]
[D#m]
[A#m] [G#]
[C#]
Standing beside the ocean, looking across the water
Everything is beautiful here but I still don't feel like I ought
[G#] Things we wanted, not so long ago
[C#] I'm all out, but I ain't got you no more
But I [F#] remember the way you held me
All the sweet [C#] things you used to say
When [G#] you were two young lovers dancing the party [C#] way
I remember everything, [C#] the way you wore your hair
The things your body told me, we seemed to float right through the air
[G#] I looked so funny dancing, but you loved me anyhow
[C#] I wish I could find somebody lovely like that now
But [F#] I remember the way you held me
All the sweet things [C#] you used to say
When you [G#] were two young lovers dancing the party [C#] way
Standing [F#]
[C#]
[G#]
[C#]
beside the ocean, throwing rocks out in the bay
I should look for companionship, but it just gets in my way
[G#] Lights are a flickering, we're on a long-blown shore
[C#] People dancing there, I don't dance there no more
But I [F#] remember the way you held me
All the sweet [C#] things you used to say
When you were [G#] two young lovers dancing the [C#] party way
Let me see [F#] you dance, let me see [D#m] you dance
[A#] Oh [G#] baby, let me see [C#] you dance
Let me see [F#] you dance, let me [D#m] see you dance
[A#m] [G#]
[C#]
[N]
