Squeeze - The Very First Dance lyrics

(Difford/Tilbrook)

I had finally beat my nerve

To watch her on the stage

Removing all her clothes

Revealing only age

Some men stared with a stun

Some sat in married guilt

That night I chewed a brick

For ideals I had built

And there we were in each other's arms

The very 1st dance that seemed to last

For ever…

Our heads they almost touched

Our feet beneath us moved

Professional her dance

And me the horses hoof

The lights the beat the vision

I'd conjured in my head

Had magically appeared

And disappeared again

The music stopped we parted

But only for a bar

Off to the Bahamas

Back into her arms

The excitement of a kiss

Quenched my lovers thirst

We walked into the cold night

A night to remember
