She was sitting on a barstool, smiling bright, s**ing on a Newport Light Hoping she'll come home with me tonight She reminded me of a girl I once knew, San Francisco 2002 With one quick glance I knew she knew what to do Moments never last, they're only pictures of our past We all got a secret so please don't ask The faces in the mirror tell the tale so much clearer Close your eyes and let me pull you nearer Move to the right, dance all night Everything's gonna be alright in the morning Move to the left, hope for the best Don't you worry, we'll get some rest in the morning Over in the corner played a cover band, she whispered to me, “Baby, that's my jam” She said, “It's time to dance,” and grabbed my hand I was a little drunk as I spun her around, got a little dizzy and she hit the ground She jumped back up, her kiss left me spellbound Life moves so fast, fadin' pictures of our past We all got a secret so please don't ask
The cracks in the mirror tell the tale so much clearer Close your eyes and let me pull you nearer Move to the right, dance all night Everything's gonna be alright in the morning Move to the left, hope for the best Don't you worry, we'll get some rest in the morning There's a sound a heart makes when it breaks There's a darkness that love shows as it goes There's a beauty in the fact that I don't know you There's a certain freedom found only in a stranger's arms About 3 AM the band wrapped it up, she touched my cheek and I was struck We made one last toast to our good luck She said to me, “Baby, hop in my car, I know a place and it ain't too far” We made the sweetest love out under the stars Move to the right, dance all night Everything's gonna be alright in the morning Move to the left, hope for the best Don't you worry, we'll get some rest in the morning
