He left West Virginia from somewhere south of Wheeling
and headed north to Bangor Maine
She'd thought by now that he had surely lost the feeling
and all her love had been in vain
when an old familiar face was standing right outside her door
professing endless love and nothing more
she rushed into his arms like she'd dreamed about before
now they're not lonely any more
A heart can dance and a heart can fly
seems the whole world was falling in love that night
yes a heart can dance and a heart can fly
seems the whole world was falling in love that night
yes the whole world was falling in love
He was a busy man who'd spent his life
crossing "t's" and dotting "i" s
he'd hoped someday to find someone to be his wife
but he never seemed to find the time
then one night in the check out line at the local grocery store
he saw her picking change up off the floor
he bent to lend a hand and then they both walked out the door
now they're not lonely anymore.
A heart can dance and a heart can fly
seems the whole world was falling in love that night
yes a heart can dance and a heart can fly
seems the whole world was falling in love that night
yes the whole world was falling in love
So if you're feeling lonely and there's someone across the room
don't wait too long love can never come too soon
and your loneliness is all you have to lose
your loneliness is all you have to lose
She was a showgirl on the strip in Las Vegas
she'd been known to turn some heads
but no one ever saw the girl behind the glitter
they saw a fantasy instead
then one night in a restaurant as the waiter took her order
he looked into her eyes and they both smiled
they knew right then and there that they'd been waiting for each other
love had took them by surprise
A heart can dance and a heart can fly
seems the whole world was falling in love that night
yes a heart can dance and a heart can fly
seems the whole world was falling in love that night
yes the whole world was falling in love that night
yes the whole world was falling in love.
