Friday night it was late 

I was walking you home 

we got down to the gate 

and I was dreaming of the night 

would it turn out right 

how to tell you girl 

I want to build my world around you 

tell you that it's true 

I wanna make you understand 

I'm talking about a life time plan 

that's the way it began 

we were hand in hand 

Glen Miller's Band was better than before 

we yelled and screamed for more 

and the porter too 

made us dance across the room 

it ended it all too soon 

and on the way back home 

I promise you, you'll never be alone 

hurry don't be late 

I can hardly wait 

I said to myself when we're old 

we'll go dancing in the dark 

walking through the park and reminiscing 

Friday night it was late 

I was walking you home 

we got down to the gate 

and I was dreaming of the night 

would it turn out right 

now as the years roll on 

each time we hear our favorite song 

the memories come along 

older times we're missing 

spending the hours reminiscing 

hurry don't be late 

I can hardly wait 

I said to myself when we're old 

we'll go dancing in the dark 

walking through the park and reminiscing 

we'll go dancing in the dark 

walking through the park and reminiscing 

you should be dancing 

dancing 

dancing 

dancing 

and reminiscing
