History In My Arms...

Shakin' my soul, with that Boogie Woogie beat

Red-hot music can make me move my feet

Twangin' guitars, drums and maracas

Waltzes, jitterbugs, romantic cha-chas

There ain't nothing like holdin' my girl

And lettin' go the troubles of the world

My body swaying and feet hittin' the beat

Gettin' it right, and feelin' your heat

Watching you turn, your eyes on me

Sparklin' vision that I see

Feelin' your hands, trails of pleasure

Give you some back, for good measure

Crushed against your wrigglin' hips

Gettin' the message with just brushed lips

Hope I got the words all right

Promises for the back-half of night

So let's hear something slow and hot

I'm gonna give it all I got

Then we're leaving, steppin' on air

Flushed and feelin' so full of dare

Relivin' old, young nights

You are still such a pretty sight

We were somethin' then

Yes, we were...way back when
