Salin' can save me
or I drown evermore
but I'm on the waves
with you on the shore
never mind
one find day
in some bar
by the harbor
I'll find you
there you'll be
as you where
corner stool
by the jukebox
watin' for me
I can remember
sweet child
gone a mile
swayin' your head
to the crazy ragtime
sayin' "hey you got a quater?
hey you look familiar
hey you got a quater?
let's dance to the ragtime"
slow down
don't time fly
chased your smile
to some cold dingy attic
now memories of
a room we shared
heaven and home to me longer
and longer ago
I can remember
time's up
callin' ships all of the sounds
of a restless harbor
you said "hey you look familiar
come on you remember
hey you got a quater?
let's dance to the ragtime
sailin' has saved me
from drownin' evermore
but I'm on the waves
and you on the shore
never mind
one find day
in some bar by the harbor
I'll find you
boozy, scared
breakin' down
tellin' the bouncer be cool
'cause you're waitin' for me
like I been dreamin'
that's you
swingin' 'round
pushin' your way like
a star to the jukebox
sayin' hey ya' got a quater?
hey don't you remember?
let's dance to the ragtime!
hey ya' got a quater?
hey don't you remember?"
why must I remember?
never mind
one find day
in some bar by the harbor
I'll find you
I'll find you
I'll find you
and will dance to the ragtime
yes will dance to the ragtime
will we dance and to the ragtime
yes will dance to the ragtime
