Table Top

I fell in love in a fifties diner
With someone I never knew
You were sitting all sad in the corner
In the red high-top leather booth

And I could tell you were down and out
Someone left you behind
But you were to beautiful to sit alone
Took my one shot that night

Asked for your hand and if you'd like to join in a dance
And you smiled as I began to
Dance on the table top I spun around until you yelled to stop
I was spinning grinning feeling so full of life
Dancing on the table top I spun around until you yelled to stop
I was twisting grinning feeling so full of life

Sat and talked about your drama
And how you snuck out of your room
Took you back home to your mama
She was waiting there with a broom

Few weeks went by and I was still thinking of you
Wondered if it was a fluke
But there you were here again walking this way
You came and sat with me

Asked for my hand and if I'd like to join in a dance
And I smiled as you began to
Dance on the table top you spun around until I yelled to stop
You were spinning grinning feeling so full of life
Dancing on the table top you spun around until I yelled to stop
You were twisting grinning feeling so full of life

And now that we're older
I still see in you
The stranger I fell for
In 1962
I can remember
The look in your eyes
When I got on my knee
And gave you the greatest surprise
We danced on table tops and spun around until we had to stop
We were spinning kissing feeling so full of life
Dancing on the table tops we spun around until we had to stop
We were spinning kissing feeling so full of life

Woo oh
Woo oh
