Quotes
- “Me neither.I'm glad that we agree.Believe me,That's a big relief.Well, this place is awful crowdedAnd this music is so loud.Would you like to go and grab a bite to eat?Me neither.”
- “Somewhere in my closetThere's a cardboard box just sittin' on a shelf.It's full of faded memoriesAnd it's been there ever since the night you left.Oh, just forgotten photographsTo remind me of the past.Oh, but I can still see everything just fine.Who needs pictures with a memory like mine?Yeah, who needs pictures with a memory like mine?”
- “And then all of a suddenOh, it seemed so strange to me,How we went from something's missingTo a family.Lookin' back all I can sayAbout all the things he did for meIs I hope I'm at least half the dadThat he didn't have to be.”
- “And we danced;Out there on that empty hardwood floor.The chairs up and the lights turned way down lowThe music played, we held each other close.And we danced.Like no one else had ever danced before.I can't explain what happened on that floor.But the music played,We held each other close,And we danced.Yeah, we danced.”
- “Well I love her;But I love to fish.I spend all day out on this lakeAnd hell is all I catch.Today she met me at the doorSaid I would have to choose.If I hit that fishin' hole today,She'd be packin' all her things,And she'd be gone by noon.Well, I'm gonna miss herWhen I get home.But right now I'm on this lake shoreAnd I'm sittin' in the sun.I'm sure it'll hit meWhen I walk through that door tonightThat I'm gonna miss her.Oh, lookie there, I've got a bite.”
- “I've been wrapped around her fingerSince the first time we went out.Every day and every night she's all I think about.I need that girl beside meWhen the lights go out.I think it's time to put a ring on the fingerI'm wrapped around.”
