Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 hung upside-down
A half a world away, far, far away
[Verse 2]
I remember you were laughing
We were so in love
We were so in love
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
Well, they say you can't go back
Well baby, I don't believe that
Come along with me
Come on and dance with me
Well, maybe if I hold you close
Baby, we could just let go
Of these things that tie us down
We'll come back around
[Verse 5]
Do you remember we were laughing
We were so in love
So in love
[Verse 6]
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
And we danced anyway
[Verse 7]
Do 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
La-la-la, oh-whoa, oh
And we danced anyway
(We were laughing) Oh
And we danced anyway (Oh-oh)
(We were dancing, oh-oh)
