Into the fields we would drive
to the only safe place for kids to get high
i'd give you jacket to keep you warm
and i'd hold you close
we would turn the radio on
and patiently wait for our favorite song
like time in a bottle or something else
nice and slow
and you would dance for me darling
dance for me darling
i love when you dance
you would dance for me darling
c'mon and dance
we had a chances to get out
but figured it best just to settle down
if it's hard times here
imagine what it's like out there
between the kids we'd struggle to save
the summers would come and then fade away
but once in a while we'd find time
for just us to share
and you would dance for me darling
dance for me darling
i love when you dance
you would dance for me darling
c'mon and dance
i'm sure there's somewhere else i could go
i'm sure there's somewhere else it could be
but it's enough for me to know
that you got moves that i still haven't seen
pretty soon the sun will set
another day in the upper midwest
i turn out the light close my book
and reach for your hand
sometimes i can't wait to fall asleep
and sleep back into the recurring dream
of an empty ballroom
with just a boy and a girl
and you would dance for me darling
dance for me darling
i love when you dance
you would dance for me darling
c'mon and dance
