The first time i saw you

You were waitin' tables at the corner diner

I said to myself

Never seen a woman look any finer



From that moment on

I was stone cold gone

You wuld be forever in my mind



Now somewhere in the neon lights

I'm holdin' on for dear life

Rockin' in the arms of your memory tonight



It was san francisco

Silly sutis and white ties by the bay

You appeared with your papa

Tears were rolin' down your mother's face



Everyone was happy

Showered by well wishers as we drove away



Now somewhere in the neon lights

I'm holdin' on for dear life

Rockin' in the arms of your memory tonight



I'm living but dying

I'm laughing but crying

Somebody tell me it will be alright



I bought it for your birthday

God you looked so lovely in that dress

I took you to a party

Or was it to a night club i forget



Been twenty years and counting

I'm drowning in your love a little more each day



Now somewhere in the neon lights

I'm holdin' on for dear life

Rockin' in the arms of your memory tonight



Now somewhere in the neon lights

I'm holdin' on for dear life

Rockin' in the arms of your memory tonight
