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 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

And that was the first day

[Chorus]

And darling, it was good

Never looking down

And 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

Wе block the noise with the sound of "I need you"

And for thе 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

And I see your face in every crowd

[Chorus]

'Cause darling, it was good

Never looking down

And 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

And 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

If I'm not dancing with you
