[Verse 1]
Friday night, it was late
I was walking you home, we got down to the gate
And I was dreaming of the night
Would it turn out right?
How to tell you, girl
I want to build my world around you
Tell you that it's true
I want to make you understand
I'm talking about a lifetime plan
[Verse 2]
That's the way it began
We were hand-in-hand
Glenn Miller's band was better than before
We yelled and screamed for more
And the Porter tune ("Night and Day")
Made us dance across the room
It ended all too soon
And on the way back home
I promised you'd never be alone
[Chorus]
Hurry, don't be late
I can hardly wait
I said to myself when we're old
We'll go dancing in the dark
Walking through the park
And reminiscing
[Verse 3]
Friday night, it was late
I was walking you home, we got down to the gate
And I was dreaming of the night
Would it turn out right?
Now, as the years roll on
Each time we hear our favourite song
The memories come along
Older times we're missing
Spending the hours reminiscing
[Chorus]
Hurry, don't be late
I can hardly wait
I said to myself when we're old
We'll go dancing in the dark
Walking through the park, and reminiscing
