Lyrics

She's 24
Freshly graduated
In a fancy little city
In Europe

Her hair is long
Tanned skin, liberated
Skinny dipping and romancing
Eyes aglow

Forward backward she is dancing
Like the waves that keep her swaying
Praying this moment won't go

Amber spotlight, eyes are watching
Wishing they could spend an evening
Soirée intime à Bordeaux

He's 21
Left home for the first time
Things were quiet in his hometown
He's looking for fun

His loving glare
Sweeps you off your feet but healing
He will leave you catching feelings
Life is unfair

Takin' chances with romances
He's so smooth with his advances
Surfing through life with the flow

Cha cha cha with confidence
Every step a subtle trance
Underneath the moonlight's glow

[Scat vocals]

At 24
He met a girl in the city, Rome
At first sight they fell in love
They gave it a go

Took her France
She had a taste of where he's from
For the first time she belonged
He might be the one

Forward backward they're now dancing
Like the waves that keep 'em swaying
Praying this moment won't go

Amber spotlight, eyes are watching
Off they go to spend an evening
Soirée intime à Bordeaux

Oh, forward backward she is dancing
Like the waves that keep her swaying
Praying this moment won't go

Amber spotlight, eyes are watching
Wishing they could spend an evening
Soirée intime à Bordeaux
