on a warm summer evening

i'm dancin' to the radio alone

don't need no conversation

just want a new love to call all my own

throw the window open

let the breeze take me away

ya' see i gotta lose all this ol' heartache

before the sun comes round back to stay



i been doin' my best to forget you

but i can't do it on my own



chorus

i need to dance with a stranger

and hold him in my arms

close my eyes make believe he's you

i need to dance with a stranger

take my hurt away

before i'm over you



hear the city hummin'

grab my shoes and go downtown

won't need no invitation

just to hear the sweet sweet sound

and i don't want no man to ask me

where you been all y lonlely life

just wanna move real slow

and have somebody hold me tight



i've been doin' my best to forget you

but i can't do it on my own



chorus



i hear the heart is a lonely hunter

and i believe it to be true

but this heart is learning to forget

i ever fell in love with you



chorus
