As we lay here tonight Please forgive me girl if I say the future is not bright But please take my hand and we'll have one last dance in the place where we first met eyes Holy city zoo I recall the name of the place where I first saw you With your eyes so kind And your smile so bright I just wanted to take you home Where you go I wanna go What you do I wanna do I'll be your Troy Donnahue If you'll be my Sandra Dee It's a trivial pursuit But I know if I fall on my heart I'll be with you But please understand I am just a man And I need you to take me home We're together now Wanna change my shoes so I feel like you somehow Need to breathe your breathe and caress your dress I'll be with you for quite some time I'll take you where you wanna go Tell me where I wanna know I will just go with the flow As long as I'm there with you Are the kids ok Did they find the time to give the call today But my hearts with yours I am keeping score of the things that I have done wrong Another funeral All the people I know are beginning to fade away And I have to say that at least today its beginning to get me down To this day I'm lovin you We know what we wanna do I am your Troy Donnahue And you are my Sandra Dee Now I know you well I still love you adore you I need you more than then With your eyes still kind and your smile so bright I still want to take you home And I will do all that I can You're my women I'm your man And if we still don't have a plan We'll listen to Thunderoad

    General Comment:I love this song so much.

    I think it's from the point of view of an old man (maybe BDB thinking about himself when he's older), thinking about the future of him and his wife/partner. It's them coming back to the they first met - 'the place where I first saw you' - maybe literally or metaphorically, and thinking back on their lives together. I think that the 'future's not bright' because they're getting older, and that he's worried he might not be around forever - 'Another funeral, All the people I know, Are beginning to fade away, And I have to say that at least today, It's beginning to get me down'. It seems like they've been together for a long time and are in love, but the future of their lives, not their love, is uncertain. Just my ideas but hey. Might not be right.

    It's BDB's partner who does the backing vocals at the end, which is very sweet.

    Masterpiece of a song :D
