Honky Tonk Hearts
Honky Tonk Hearts: Love's Dance in Neon Shadows
Lyrics
I see you across the dance floor
I notice you from a distance on the dance floor.
And your something to see
You are visually striking or attractive.
I smile at you and I say will you dance with me?
I express my interest by smiling and inviting you to dance.
I hold you in the shadows
We share an intimate moment in the shadows.
And I'm feeling close
Our connection feels strong and intimate.
Oh but something tells me
Despite the connection, there's a sense that this experience is not new to us.
We've both felt it before
Implying that both of us have experienced similar emotions before.

In the bright morning light
The contrast between the nighttime passion and the morning reality.
Well maybe it's the music
Speculating on whether the music or wine influences the intense feelings.
Or it might be the wine
The experience feels like true love with physical closeness.
But it feels just like love does
Confessing emotions that may not be entirely truthful.
With your body close to mine
Acknowledging the impact of the moment on emotions.
So I say things I shouldn't
I express emotions or make promises that may not be genuine.
And you believe that they're true
You trust my words for tonight, even if they may not be true.
At least for tonight
Suggesting a temporary belief in the promises made.
I believe them too
I, too, momentarily believe in the sincerity of my words.
