We grew up in the same town,
Three houses down on Magnolia Street.
Young love was going strong,
Even though your Dad and Mom were sound asleep.
A blanket an' some moonlight,
We'd slip down by the lake.
Seventeen an' restless, you know we just couldn't wait,
An' I wish I were rockin' you tonight.
I remember the day we both cried:
You got that full ride to university.
You had to do what you had to do,
An' we both knew it was the end of me.
We wrote our 'Miss you' letters,
Made long distance calls,
But I lost you forever half way through the Fall,
An' I wonder, baby, who's rockin' you tonight?
An' I live for those moments,
Wrapped up in your arms.
Swayin' to the music of those wildly beatin',
Wildly beating hearts.
:. Instrumental Break .:
Gotta lotta time to think of you,
On the way to the next Marquee site.
With any luck, one of these days,
You'll see my name: know I'm doin' fine.
Every now an' then, out here on the stage,
I look through the floodlights,
An' I swear I see your face.
It feels so good to be rockin' you tonight.
Yeah, I'm rockin' you tonight.
I'm rockin' you tonight.
Baby, I'm rockin' you tonight.
