Though I'm tired just sitting here talking with you There's better things y'know a lonely rock 'n' roller can do The hour is getting late They're putting all our dreams away And lord have mercy on all of our thoughts today I should get away But I would rather stay and dance C'mon darling let's dance Although I'm tired just sitting here falling for you There's better things y'know a lonely boy and girl can do The hour is getting late They're pulling all the curtains drawn We got the rest of our lives 'til the coming dawn Hold my hand awhile We'll go out in style And dance C'mon darling let's dance I'll say a little prayer for us girl I'll say a little prayer for us girl Though I'm tired just sitting here singing for you There's better things y'know a lonely rock 'n' roller can do The hour is getting late They're putting all the chairs away If they've got Big Star on the radio they'll let us stay Oh, September girl Come and rule my world And dance C'mon darling let's dance C'mon baby let's dance C'mon darling let's dance C'mon baby let's dance C'mon darling let's dance I'll say a little prayer for us girl I'll say a little prayer for us girl Show a little love I'll keep it close to mine and Have a little heart I'll keep my own in time and Show a little love I'll keep it close to mine And dance
