The summer air was heavy and sweet You and I on a crowded street, there was music everywhere I can see us there In a happy little foreign town where the stars hung upside down A half a world away, far, far away I remember you were laughing We were so in love, we were so in love And the band play songs that we had never heard But we danced anyway We never understood the words We just sang oh La-la-la-la-la-la-la And we danced anyway ♪ Well, they say you can't go back But baby, I don't believe that Come along with me, come on and dance with me Well, maybe if I hold you close, baby, we could just let go Off these things that tie us down, we'll come back around You remember we were laughing We were so in love, so in love And the band play songs that we had never heard But we danced anyway We never understood the words We just sang oh La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la And we danced anyway ♪ You remember we were laughing We were so in love, we were so in love And the band play songs that we had never heard But we danced anyway We never understood the words We just sang oh La-la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la, oh whoa Oh-oh-ooh And we danced anyway (oh-oh, we were laughing) Oh-oh, we danced anyway (oh-oh, we were dancing) (Oh-oh)
