And through your eyes all the things I want to see
And in the night you are my dream
You're everything to me
You're the love of my life
And the breath in my prayers
Take my hand lead me there
I can't forget the taste of your mouth
From your lips the heavens pour out
I can't forget when we are one
With you alone I am free
Everyday every night, you alone
You're the love of my life
Everyday, every night, you alone,
You're the love of my life
We go dancing in the moonlight
With the starlight in your eyes
We go dancing 'till the sunrise
You and me we're gonna dance, dance, dance

My dad used to play this in his car when I was 7-8... Always listened to it on my way to school back in the day! Now that I’ve found it after 10 years, it brings back a ton of memories. When life was sooo simple :-)
