1. The summer air was heavy and
sweet,
Bm A
you
and I on a crowded street,
D G - Bm A
there
was music everywhere, I can see us there.
D G
In a happy little foreign
town,
Bm A
where
the stars hung upside down,
D G - Bm A
a
half a world away, far, far away.
G - A
I remember, we were laughing,
G A
we
were so in love, we were so in love !
Bm - G D A
And the band played songs
that we had never heard,
Bm G D
A
but we danced anyway, we never
understood the words.
Bm G D
A G
We just sang : Oh, ah, la la
la la la
la la la
la !
A D
And we danced anyway.

Bm A
well,
baby, I don't believe that,
D G
- Bm A
come
along with me, come on and dance
with me !
D G - Bm A
And maybe if I hold you close, baby,
we could just let go
Bm G - D A
of
these things that tie us down, we’ll
come back again.

You remember we were laughing,
G A
we
were so in love, so in love !
