Summer air was heavy and sweet
you and i on a crowded street
there was music everywhere
i can see us there
in a happy, little foreign town
where the stars hung upside down
half a world away
far far away
I remember you were laughing
we were so in love, we were so in love
and the band played
songs that we had never heard
but we danced anyway
we never understood the words
we just sang
oh la la la la la la la la
and we danced anyway
Well they say you can't go back
but baby i don't believe that
come along with me
come on and dance with me
maybe if i hold you close
maybe we can just let go
of these things that tie us down
we'll come back around
You remember we were laughing
we were so in love, so in love
and the band played
songs that we had never heard
but we danced anyway
we never understood the words
we just sang
oh la la la la la la la la
and we danced anyway
You remember, we were laughing
we were so in love, we were so in love
and the band played
songs that we had never heard
but we danced anyway
we never understood the words
we just sang
oh la la la la la la la la la la oh oh
and we danced any way
Oh we were laughing
oh and we danced anyway
oh we were dancing
