Lyrics

As we lay here tonight
Please forgive me girl if I say the future is not bright
But please take my hand and we'll have one last dance in the place where we first met eyes

Holy city zoo
I recall the name of the place where I first saw you
With your eyes so kind
And your smile so bright
I just wanted to take you home

Where you go I wanna go
What you do I wanna do
I'll be your troy donahue
If you'll be my sandra dee

It's a trivial pursuit
But I know if I fall on my heart
I'll be with you
But please understand I am just a man
And I need you to take me home

We're together now
Wanna change my shoes so I feel like you somehow
Need to breathe your breath and caress your dress
I'll be with you for quite some time

I'll take you where you wanna go
Tell me where
I wanna know
I will just go with the flow
As long as i'm there with you

Are the kids ok
Did they find the time to give you the call today
But my heart's with yours
I am keeping score of the things that I have done wrong

Another funeral
All the people I know are beginning to fade away
And I have to say that at least today it's beginning to get me down

To this day i'm lovin you
We know what we wanna do
I am your troy donahue
And you are my sandra dee

Now I know you well
I still love you, adore you, I need you more than then
With your eyes still kind and your smile still bright
I still want to take you home

And I will do all that I can
You're my woman, i'm your man
And if we still don't have a plan
We'll listen to thunder road
