  • I can't remember the last time
    We sat at the table, just the two of us
    Looked into each other's eyes
    And made the choice to choose us

    Let's trace the steps of where we've been
    To make it feel like home again

    And you play the stranger
    I'll play the girl at the bar
    The same place where this all got started
    Sometimes I wish I didn't know you at all
    So we could do it all over
    And fall all over each other again

    I know you remember that first night
    I asked if you would wanna dance
    You made me laugh in the neon light
    With your two left feet telling me you can't

    Let's trace those steps 'til we can find
    Where we got lost in love that time

    And you play the stranger
    I'll play the girl at the bar
    The same place where this all got started
    Sometimes I wish I didn't know you at all
    So we could do it all over
    And fall all over each other again, ooh

    Let's trace the steps of where we've been
    To make it feel like home again

    And you play the stranger
    I'll play the girl at the bar
    The same place where this all got started
    Sometimes I wish I didn't know you at all
    So we could do it all over
    And fall all over each other
    Do it all over
    And fall all over each other again
