Lyrics

First Dance
(lyrics: Mel Higgins)

The prettiest girl I ever saw before
Sat tapping her feet at the edge of the dance floor,
Summoned my courage and took a chance,
Went up to her and asked for a dance.

She smiled sweetly and took my hand
As a slow dance started by a country band,
We waltzed together across the floor,
I asked her to dance to yet one more.

CHORUS: That first dance waltzed me away
To heaven and back on that first day.
How would life have turned out, I can only guess,
If she hadn't smiled and said: "yes".

We danced each dance 'til the band was done,
Then I gave her a lift home.
Was there something 'bout dusty boots and faded jeans
That let me be the man of her dreams?

By the end of the summer she was my bride,
Starting life together, her by my side.
We danced our first dance as husband and wife,
The first of many dances throughout our lives.

CHORUS

Bridge: So many years have passed,
Time flies by so fast
But we're still happy together
And I'll always remember
That night and our first dance

CHORUS
