Writers: Russell Smith & James Brown Standing beside of the ocean Looking out across the water Everything is beautiful But I still don't feel like I oughta Things we wanted, not so long ago I got 'em all now, babe But I ain't got you no more Still I remember The way you held me And all the sweet things you used to say When we were two young lovers Dancing the night away I remember everything Dresses you used to wear You were so light and graceful You seem to float right through the air Me I looked so funny dancing But you loved me anyhow Now I wish I could find somebody To love me like that now Still I remember The way you held me And all the sweet things you used to say When we were two young lovers Dancing the night away Standing beside of the ocean Looking out across the bay I should look for companionship But it just gets in my way All the lights are flickering Out along the shore I see people dancing there But I just don't dance no more Still I remember The way you held me And all the sweet things you used to say When we were two young lovers Dancing the night away Let me see you dance Let me see you dance Oh, babe, let me see you dance I can still see you dance I remember you dancing Oh, babe, let me see you dance
