Dance in the old fashioned way
Won't you stay in my arms?
 
Just melt against my skin
And let me feel your heart
Don't let the music win
By dancing far apart
 
Come close where you belong
Let's hear our secret song
 
Dance in the old fashioned way
Won't you stay in my arms?
 
And we'll discover heights
We never knew before
If we just close our eyes
And dance around the floor
 
That gay old fashioned way
That makes me love you more
 
Come closer
Forget about the others
It's nice to be like this, cheek to cheek
In the old fashioned way
Hahaha
 
It's funny but
I have the feeling that we're dancing as our parents used to do
Well, maybe they weren't wrong
The world changes
Love stays
 
Dance in the old fashioned way
Won't you stay in my arms?
 
And we'll discover heights
We never knew before
If we just close our eyes
And dance around the floor
 
That gay old fashioned way
That makes me love you more
 
Mmm...

YOU ARE STILL THE ONE

Looks like we made it
Look how far we've come, my baby
We might've took the long way
We knew we'd get there someday
They said, "I bet
They'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together, still going strong
 
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(Still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss goodnight
 
Ain't nothin' better
We beat the odds together
I'm glad we didn't listen
Look at what we would be missin'
They said, "I bet
They'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together, still going strong
 
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(Still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss goodnight
Still the one
Still the one
 
Yeah (still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(Still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss goodnight
 
I'm so glad we made it
Look how far we've come, my baby.

Do you remember summer '09
Wanna go back there every night
Just can't lie it was the best time of my life
Lying on the beach as the sun blew out
Playing this guitar by the fire too loud
Oh my, my, they can never shut us down
 
I used to think that I was better alone
Why did I ever wanna let you go
Under the moonlight as we stared at the sea
The words you whispered I will always believe
 
I want you to
Rock me, rock me, rock me... yeah!
I want you to
Rock me, rock me, rock me... yeah!
I want you to
Hit the pedal heavy metal show me you care
I want you to
Rock me, rock me, rock me... yeah!
 
We were together summer '09
Wanna roll back like pressing rewind
You were mine and we never said goodbye
 
I used to think that I was better alone (better alone)
Why did I ever wanna let you go (let you go)
Under the moonlight as we stared at the sea (stared at the sea)
The words you whispered I will always believe
 
I want you to
Rock me, rock me, rock me... yeah!
I want you to
Rock me, rock me, rock me... yeah!
I want you to
Hit the pedal heavy metal show me you care
I want you to
Rock me, rock me, rock me... yeah!
 
R-O-C-K me again
R-O-C-K me again
R-O-C-K me again... yeah
I want you to
R-O-C-K me again
R-O-C-K me again
R-O-C-K me again... yeah
 
I want you to
Rock me, rock me, rock me... yeah!
I want you to
Rock me, rock me, rock me... yeah!
I want you to
Hit the pedal heavy metal show me you care
I want you to
Rock me, rock me, rock me... yeah!
 
I want you to
Rock me, rock me, rock me... yeah!
I want you to
Rock me, rock me, rock me... yeah!
I want you to
Hit the pedal heavy metal show me you care
I want you to
Rock me, rock me, rock me... yeah!

Remember the day our lips touched in the rain
Fireworks through my veins into my heart
Remember the nights dancing under the sky
I got lost in the moonlight
Found in your dark eyes
 
Ohh I wanna fall in love again but this time
But this time with no regrets
I wanna give it all again but this time
But this time with no secrets
I don't want just anyone
Not anyone new
I wanna fall in love again with you
With you
With you
 
I wanna fall in love again with you
With you
With you
Can we forget all the lies that we've led
Take us so far away from the truth
 
Can we erase all the tears and regrets
Fear hiding in the pain
The shadows of yesterday
Ohh I wanna fall in love again but this time
But this time with no regrets
I wanna give it all again but this time
But this time with no secrets
 
I don't want just anyone
Not anyone new
I wanna fall in love again with you
 
With you
With you
We can take a blank white page
And fill it with the dreams we made
And let the scars slowly fade away
 
I wanna fall in love again but this time
With no regrets
I wanna give it all again but this time
But this time with no secrets
I don't want just anyone
Not anyone new
Woah oh I don't want just anyone
Not anyone new
I wanna fall in love again with you
With you
With you
With you
I wanna be in love again with you
With you
I wanna be in love again.
