The 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 are upside down A 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 They say you cant go back But, baby, I dont believe that Come along with me Come on and dance with me Maybe if I hold you close Baby, we could 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" And we danced anyway
