Are you going to live your life wondering Standing in the back looking around? Are you going to waste your time thinking How you've grown up How you missed out? Things are never going be the way you want Where's it going to get you acting serious? Things are never going to be quite what you want Even at twenty five you got to start sometime I'm on my feet I'm on the floor I'm good to go All I need is just to hear a song I know I want to always feel like part of this was mine I want to fall is love tonight Are you going to live your life standing in the back looking around? Are you going to waste your time? Got to make a move or you'll miss out Someone is goin' to ask you what it's all about Stick around nostalgia won't let you down Someone is going to ask you what's it's all about What are you going to have to say for yourself? I'm on my feet I'm on the floor I'm good to go All I need is just to hear a song I know I want to always want to feel like part of this was mine I want to fall in love tonight Crimson and clover over and over Crimson and clover over and over Our house in the middle of the street Why did we ever meet Start in my rock and roll fantasy Don't don't don't let start Why did we ever part Kick start my rock and roll heart I'm on my feet I'm on the floor I'm good to go So come on Davey, sing me something that I know Want to always feel like part of this was mine Want to fall in love tonight Here, tonight
