I guess this is a song about that first flush of love, the giddiness and exhilaration of meeting someone for the first time and going home with a feeling of ecstatic excitement. When you click, you click. It can't be beaten.

DANCING IN THE LIGHT
Coming home late
From a first date
I picked up a pen
And wrote your name in ink
I knew it was important
Way back then
A new energy
Innocently
Flowing into
A part of me so empty
Like I’d saved it
Just for you
So fortune smiled
The widest grin
Into the wild
So we begin
CHORUS
When I lost my way
I followed you
I followed you
I had to get away
I followed you
I followed you
This kind of love
Was hard to find
The planets and
The stars aligned
Dancing in the light
Maybe I’m wrong
And didn’t belong
Even at first
Lost in a moment of elation
Bubbles waiting to be burst
But the signals were strong
And we went along
Watching it grow
Uncertainty defeated and abandoned in the snow
A lucky break
So they say
Time to take
And seize the day
CHORUS
