Don Bates recorded this version In Nashville, Tennessee for his series "Around the House".
lyrics
V 1
Maybe in another life I'll see
The sun was just pushing through
You're home on a ship at sea
While I'm on a dock waiting for you
PRE CHORUS
Come home baby tonight and believe
Though the stars never looked so bright out at sea
CHORUS
Dance your life away, and let go
Don't be the one who stays, you'll have to make it on your own
V 2
I'm gonna dissect everything, and relive every last word
Soft tissue, chapped lips, bed springs
I'll remember why it still hurts
PRE CHORUS
Come home baby tonight, and believe
Though the stars never looked so bright out at sea
Come back baby tonight, and we'll leave Cause the road never looked so bright, no not even in our dreams
CHORUS
Dance your life away, and let go
Don't be the one who stays, you'll have to make it on your own
