It was sweet and light and it ended too soon, but we laughed for a while
Then we parted ways and we each go on with our life
Now we chanced to meet so let' share a beer and the special smile
From someone who knows me not as a mother or wife
And let's laugh for a while
And let's dance
And let's hold hands under the table
You can say I look grand and ask if I'm able
To come home with you tonight
Now I'm always surprised by the ravage of time and my vanity
Only fools worship youth, and nobody can stop time
Still you look at me that way and I regain my sanity
And my ears are just aching for all of those corny old lines
So let's laugh for a while
And let's dance
I'm gonna sit here awhile in the dark and the quiet and solitude
I washed the smoke from my hair, and I'll rock the baby a while
The moon's shining down on me, on the woman I am right now
But I;ll think about tonight and I'll smile
Cause we laughed for a while
And we danced and we danced and we danced
And let's hold hands under the table
You can say I look grand and ask if I'm able
To come home with you tonight
To come home with you tonight
To come home with you tonight
