Lyrics
Friday night it was late, I was walking you home
Describes a Friday night where the speaker walked their companion home.
We got down to the gate, I was dreaming of the night
They reached the gate, and the speaker was daydreaming about the future.
Would it turn out right?
Wondering if the envisioned future will unfold as desired.
How to tell you girl, I want to build my world around you
Expressing a desire to build a life around the person they are with.
Wanna tell you that it's true
Affirming the truth of their feelings.
I wanna make you understand I'm talking about a lifetime plan
Emphasizing a commitment to a long-term plan.
Well that's the way it began, we were hand-in-hand
Describing the beginning of their journey, hand-in-hand.
Glen Miller's band was better than before
Recalling the enjoyment of Glen Miller's band, suggesting a positive time.
We yelled and screamed for more
Expressing enthusiasm for more of the enjoyable experience.
And those Porter's tunes made us dance across the room
Referring to the impact of Porter's tunes, making them dance.
It ended all too soon
Regretting that the joyful experience ended too soon.
On the way back home I promised you'd never be alone
Promising companionship and reassurance on the way back home.
Hurry, don't be late
Urging not to be late, indicating eagerness for the next moment.
I can't hardly wait
Impatiently anticipating a future event.
I said to myself when we're old

We'll go dancing in the dark, walking through the park

Would it turn out right?

Now as the years roll on, each time we hear our favorite song
Reflecting on the passing years and the memories triggered by a favorite song.
The memories come along
Emphasizing the association of memories with certain songs.
Older times we're missing, spending the hours reminiscing
Expressing a longing for older times and spending hours reminiscing.
Hurry, don't be late
Repeating the urgency not to be late, echoing impatience.
I can't hardly wait
Reiterating the anticipation for a future event.
