Romantic World
Dana Dawson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

I will try
To come and see you tonight
Fix up my face
Look like a star, baby
I will buy
A flower to put in my hair
So you can see
Just where I am

Say you will be
The one who dances up to me
The one who takes me to the sky
Way up high
Show a growing girl
A romantic world
Say you will be
The one who dances close to me
The one who takes me to the sky
Way up high
Show a growing girl
A romantic world

I can't lie
I would not miss opening night
You're just the best
On your guitar, baby
But I won't try
No, I can't stay out all night
I must return
Before midnight

Say you will be
The one who dances up to me
The one who takes me to the sky
Way up high
Show a growing girl
A romantic world
Say you will be
The one who dances close to me
The one who takes me to the sky
Way up high
Show a growing girl
A romantic world [Repeat: x4]





Say you will be
