I finally asked you to dance on the last slow song Beneath that moon that was really a disco ball And I can still feel my head on your shoulder Hoping that song would never be over I haven't seen you in ages Sometimes I find myself wondering where you are For me you'll always be eighteen And beautiful and dancing away with my heart I brushed your curls back so I could see your eyes And the way you moved me was like you were reading my mind I can still feel you lean into kiss me I can't help but wonder if you ever miss me I haven't seen you in ages Sometimes I find myself wondering where you are For me you'll always be eighteen And beautiful and dancing away with my heart You headed out to college At the end of that summer and we lost touch I guess I didn't realize even At that moment we lost so much I haven't seen you in ages Sometimes I find myself wondering where you are For me you'll always be eighteen And beautiful and dancing away with my heart Nah nah nah Nah nah nah Nah nah nah Away with my heart Nah nah nah Nah nah nah Nah nah nah
