Holy Ground

[Verse 1]

I was reminiscing just the other day

While having coffee all alone, and Lord, it took me away

Back to a first-glance feeling on New York time

Back when you fit in my poems like a perfect rhyme

Took off faster than a green light, go

Yeah, you skip the conversation when you already know

I left a note on the door with a joke we'd made

That was the first day

[Chorus]

Darling, it was good

Never looking down

Right there where we stood

Was holy ground

[Verse 2]

Spinning like a girl in a brand new dress

We had this big wide city all to ourselves

We blocked the noise with the sound of, "I need you"

And for the first time, I had something to lose

And I guess we fell apart in the usual way

And the story's got dust on every page

But sometimes, I wonder how you think about it now

I see your face in every crowd

[Chorus]

Darling, it was good

Never looking down

Right there where we stood

Was holy ground

[Bridge]

Tonight, I'm gonna dance

For all that we've been through

But I don't wanna dance

If I'm not dancing with you

Tonight, I'm gonna dance

Like you were in this room

But I don't wanna dance

If I'm not dancing with you

[Chorus]

It was good

Never looking down

Right there where we stood

Was holy ground

[Outro]

Tonight, I'm gonna dance

For all that we've been through

But I don't wanna dance

If I'm not dancing with you

Tonight, I'm gonna dance

Like you were in this room

But I don't wanna dance
