Lyrics
0:15It was like a movie
0:19On the waves at night
0:22Barely escaping with our lives
0:28We took your boat from Red Hook
0:33Towards the copper lights
0:36We had forever but no time
0:42Ooh ooh-ooh
0:48I didn't know you could look at me that way
0:55I know they got
0:59Under your skin
1:02But when the lights came up
1:06You were still dancing
1:09Off with your head
1:13What's left to take
1:16You were still standing like
1:20A featherweight
1:25It was like a movie
1:28Knocking on the door
1:32Whispering the password
1:39Oh radical believers
1:42Forgive you if you stray
1:46A notion of doubt is no match for an ounce of faith
1:52Ooh ooh-ooh
1:58I didn't know you could look at me that way
2:05I know they got
2:08Under your skin
2:12But when the lights came up
2:15You were still dancing
2:19Off with your head
2:22What's left to take
2:26You were still standing like
2:29A featherweight
2:37Come back down
2:43You're floating now
2:47You don't need to wake up
2:49Now that you've stayed up
2:51All night long
2:57You're floating now
It was like a movie On the waves at night Barely escaping with our lives We took your boat from Red Hook Towards the copper lights We had forever but no time Ooh ooh-ooh I didn't know you could look at me that way I know they got Under your skin But when the lights came up You were still dancing Off with your head What's left to take You were still standing like A featherweight It was like a movie Knocking on the door Whispering the password Oh radical believers Forgive you if you stray A notion of doubt is no match for an ounce of faith Ooh ooh-ooh I didn't know you could look at me that way I know they got Under your skin But when the lights came up You were still dancing Off with your head What's left to take You were still standing like A featherweight Come back down You're floating now You don't need to wake up Now that you've stayed up All night long You're floating now
