MIKE SHORT JR: CRANK IT UP
SLOW DANCIN' WITH A MEMORY
Verse 1 They know his face in this old bar, old cowboy clingin’ to his beer
He waits for that same slow song, chokin’ back the heartbreak and the tears
Goes back to that first dance and back to her blue eyes And he’s prayin’ that the next beer’ll get him by
Chorus 1
Now he’s hurting so bad wishin’ she was here
Slow dancing with his memories and tears
Thinking bout the love that was in her eyes, makes him wanna cry
First shot of whiskey and back to the dance, into the arms of an old romance
Every Friday night beneath these neon lights
He’s slow dancing with a memory
Verse 2
All alone in a corner booth her memory comes in loud and clear
Like an old time movie in black and white the pictures fade but don’t disappear
Chorus 2
Now he’s hurting so bad wishin’ she was here
Slow dancing with his memories and tears
Thinking bout the love that was in her eyes, makes him wanna cry
Third shot of whiskey and back to the dance, into the arms of an old romance
Every Friday night beneath these neon lights
Bridge
He goes to see her every Sunday, sits down by her side
She knows his face but not his name but his heart still feels the same
There’s a sparkle in her eyes and memories that just don’t lie,
He’s gonna love her til the day he dies
Chorus 3
Now he’s hurting so bad wishin’ she was here
Slow dancing with his memories and tears
Thinking bout the love that was in her eyes, makes him wanna cry
Last shot of whiskey and back to the dance, into the arms of an old romance
Every Friday night beneath these neon lights
He’s slow dancing with a memory
