She was a singular beauty
She took my breath away when I first saw her
Her hair shone gold in the bar light
Swaying to the music with her eyes closed
Well I gathered up my courage
And I asked her to dance
We closed that old bar down
And went home in my car
We got married a few months later
Made our life together as best as we could
We had some good times and we had our children
When I turned around twenty years were gone
Well you both get too damn busy
And sometimes life is hard
And you foolish pride and anger
Can push you apart
You get so tied up in living
You forget what its all about
You get up in the morning and put your mask on
Two strangers living together alone
Well you gotta fight your demons
Try and hold on through the night
She held on with heart and courage
And I finally saw the light
She held on with courage
And I saw the light
She is a singular beauty
She takes my breath away when I look at her
Her hair shines silver in the moonlight
We sway to the music with our eyes closed
And I thank God we found some courage
To stay together in the Dance
We're swaying to the music
With our eyes closed
Swaying to the music
With our eyes closed
