Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And here I am still five foot seven with wavy hair
Same old bench, same old tree, same place where we always meet but now
The whole world has changed somehow
Hold your hand and dance underneath the moon
That's what I wanna do
Just me and you
And that's what I wanna do
Baby, how 'bout you?
Do, do, do, do
Baby, how 'bout you?
Do, do, do, do
Do you wanna wake up with me shining on your mind
Do you wanna see sparks when you look into my eyes
Stand real close, walk to slow, when it's time to walk me home at night
Yeah, do you ever wish that I
Would hold your hand and dance underneath the moon
That's what I wanna do
Just me and you
More than friends begins with one kiss then two
And that's what I wanna do
Baby, how 'bout you?
I'll stil be your rock and you'll still make me laugh
Oh, but don't you wanna kiss me, make us so much more than that
(Do's)
Oh, I wanna hold your hand and dance underneath the moon
That's what I wanna do
Just me and you
More than friends begins with one kiss then two
And that's what I wanna do, that's what I wanna do
Hold your hand and dance underneath the moon
That's what I wanna do
Just me and you
More than friends begins with one kiss then two
And that's what I wanna do
Baby, how 'bout you?
Do, do, do, do
Baby, how 'bout you?
Do, do, do, do
That's what I wanna do (do's)
Yeah, baby
Baby, how 'bout you?
