High and Dry
Who will dance with you?
When you're left high and dry
You had your eye on a boy
But now you're feeling shy
'Cause he is courting a pretty girl
Who lives right next door
He is waltzing her round and round
The dance floor
And you get up to leave
And out the door you fly
While he runs after you saying
"Don't leave without a goodbye!"
Goodbye then, have a good night
I'l be on my way
The party is nice, but I'm afraid
I can't stay
'Cause I've got things that I need to do
"Goodnight then, I will be thinking of you"
"Let me walk you home," he said
"The night is dark and cold
Or come on back inside
See how the night may unfold"
You said, "I think you have a girl inside
Waiting for you
Besides, I've been walking myself home
Since before I knew you"
At least take my sweater
It will help you stay warm!
Oh, what good is a sweater
In a summer storm
A summer storm
Don't get your clothes wet
Oh, dear God, what a pretty picture
How will I ever get you off of my mind
With that image stuck in my head?
Running through the forest
The moonlight illuminating your skin
The dress you're wearing
Looking like a fairy
Dancing and laughing
Casting a spell
Please do not go yet, I beg you
I will do as you ask
Tonight I am all yours
We could stay here
Or go someplace else
Tell me what you want
When you're left high and dry
You had your eye on a boy
But now you're feeling shy
'Cause he is courting a pretty girl
Who lives right next door
He is waltzing her round and round
The dance floor
And you get up to leave
And out the door you fly
While he runs after you saying
"Don't leave without a goodbye!"
Goodbye then, have a good night
I'l be on my way
The party is nice, but I'm afraid
I can't stay
'Cause I've got things that I need to do
"Goodnight then, I will be thinking of you"
"Let me walk you home," he said
"The night is dark and cold
Or come on back inside
See how the night may unfold"
You said, "I think you have a girl inside
Waiting for you
Besides, I've been walking myself home
Since before I knew you"
At least take my sweater
It will help you stay warm!
Oh, what good is a sweater
In a summer storm
A summer storm
Don't get your clothes wet
Oh, dear God, what a pretty picture
How will I ever get you off of my mind
With that image stuck in my head?
Running through the forest
The moonlight illuminating your skin
The dress you're wearing
Looking like a fairy
Dancing and laughing
Casting a spell
Please do not go yet, I beg you
I will do as you ask
Tonight I am all yours
We could stay here
Or go someplace else
Tell me what you want
