Lyrics: âReminiscingâ
Â
Friday night, it was late
I was walking you home
We got down to the gate
And I was dreaming of the night
Would it turn out right?How to tell you, girl
I wanna build my world around you
Tell you that itâs true
I wanna make you understand
Iâm talking about a lifetime plan
Thatâs the way it began
We were hand-in-hand
Glenn Millerâs band
Was better than before
We yelled and screamed for more
And the Porter tune (Night and Day)
Made us dance across the room
It ended all too soon
And on the way back home
I promised youâd never be alone
Hurry, donât be late
I canât hardly wait
I said to myself when weâre old
Weâll go dancing in the dark
Walking through the park
And reminiscing
Friday night, it was late
I was walking you home
We got down to the gate
And I was dreaming of the night
Would it turn out right?
Now as the years roll on
Each time we hear our favorite song
The memories come along
Older times weâre missing
Spending the hours reminiscing
Hurry, donât be late
I canât hardly wait
I said to myself when weâre old
Weâll go dancing in the dark
Walking through the park
And reminiscing
