lyrics
Song Concept: A unique love story where a man becomes captivated by a woman who he's just seen for the first time, and all he desires is to have one dance with her.
Verse 1:
Once upon a night
Upon a fading sun
A steady pace to some
But in truth longing to be undone
It’s kind of like being in doors during a storm
Viewing through window panes
But missing the feel of the rain
As it pours down
Such a soothing sound
I just need something more now
I just need to let it all out
Cover ground to new heights
Where passion engulfs me like a light
That’s a life
That’s when she came in sight
As when lightning strikes
You’re filled with an awe
And this glorious form
It moves you along
And it moves you to song
And that dress she had on was like a red dawn
Ooh she had a red dress on
The color of a red dawn
Verse 2:
Just to watch you dance
Eyes open wide
Lust put aside
I’m seeing for the first time
Just to watch you dance
Just to watch you dance
Just to watch you move
Brings purpose and it soothes
Just to watch you dance
I don’t need your name
I don’t number or need you to feel the same
Just to watch you dance
It made me say wow
One word
Called out loud
Simple yet so complex
I feel it in my chest
It made me say wow
Chorus
She had a red dress on
Man she looked so good
She had a red dress on
She looked so good
She had a red dress on
She had a red dress on
Verse 3:
Following the heart’s desire
I step up onto the floor
Before I walk away
I’m determined to let it soar
So I risk it all
Ending this moment is what I chance
But there’s no way I’m leaving this place without a dance
I don’t want romance
I just want to have your opposite stance
Feeling enhanced to inspire trance
Need another sense of her dress
One word can only express
Simple and complex
I feel it in my chest
Outtro:
Oh wow
And I said wow
Ooh she had that red dress on
The color of a red dawn
Got so much style baby
That red dress was killing me
The color of a red dawn
I said wow to that red dress
I knew I would be alright if I just dance
