Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] She walked in shy, boots brand new Said, "I don't know how, but I wanna learn too" The DJ played that old George Strait I smiled and said, "Girl, it ain't too late" I took her hand, led her to the floor Said, "It’s just four counts, then a little more" She laughed when she missed the heel-toe slide But I caught her when she spun too wide [Chorus] Step by step, we moved in time To a rhythm that felt just like yours and mine From a simple sway to a full-blown dance Love snuck up in a sideways glance I came to dance, not fall so fast But I found forever in that boot-scootin' class She was just a girl who wanted to try Now she’s the reason I can't say goodbye [Verse 2] Week by week, we kept on meetin’ Honky-tonk floorboards, hearts a-beatin’ She'd mess up and curse under her breath I'd laugh and say, "Girl, you’re doin' your best" We'd two-step out to the parking lot Where we'd talk 'til the jukebox stopped She said, "It ain’t just dancin’ anymore" I said, "I’ve been waitin’ for that for sure" [Chorus] Step by step, we moved in time To a rhythm that felt just like yours and mine From a simple sway to a full-blown dance Love snuck up in a sideways glance I came to dance, not fall so fast But I found forever in that boot-scootin' class She was just a girl who wanted to try Now she’s the reason I can't say goodbye [Bridge] Now we got our song, we got our beat She's wearin’ my flannel and dancin’ with me Under string lights, Friday nights Her kiss hits harder than neon lights [Final Chorus] Step by step, we moved in time From strangers to partners, now she's all mine From a stumble-step to a wedding band We built a life with a little slow dance She came to learn, I came to stay And I thank the dance hall every day She was just a girl who wanted to try Now she’s my reason, my whole damn life [Outro] Yeah, it started with a dance… Now she’s forever in my hands.
