Alex Stewart - Hey There, Carin Lyrics

I'll never forget when I first saw you
Dancing in the square
I turned to my friends, said
"Who's that girl?
I'm gonna marry her. I swear!"
They said, "Oh, well, that's Carin
But she's way out of your league"
I said, "There ain't no such thing
Just watch me boys!
You just gotta believe!"
I tapped you on the shoulder
But you never turned around
And you walked off with some other guy
The hero of the town

So I'm singing, "Hey there, Carin!
Would you care to know
I've been loving you from far away
Because I'm afraid the answer's 'No'"

When I saw you at the Drive-In,
You looked fine
But when I saw you dancing
At the Ho-down, girl
Yeah, you nearly blew my mind
With your polka-dot dress
And your fancy shoes
Ribbons in your hair
My friends barely stopped me
Before I got on my knees
And proposed to you right there
I know yours, but you don't know mine,
So, "Hi! My name is Al!
Will you make me the happiest man alive
By dancing with me now?"

Now, you've been saying "No" to me
All night long
But you're gonna change your mind
When you see my moves
Because this is my favorite song

There's a waltz on the
Overhead radio now
And I'm your best bet
Because no one else knows how
So dance with me, Carin!
Dance with me, please!
I'm your only choice
I've got right AND left feet
