Dancing in the Kitchen

Verse 1

Neon lights fading in the rearview mirror

Last call laughter still ringing in my ears

You kicked off your heels, said “come on inside”

Poured us one more glass, let the silence slide

Pre-Chorus

Radio low, just an old love song

Clock on the wall saying two AM’s gone

You smiled like you knew what I was thinking

Yeah, that’s when the night stopped drinking

Chorus

We were dancing in the kitchen, barefoot on tile

Your head on my shoulder, lost track of time

Spinning slow to a vinyl crackle sound

Just two hearts, no one else around

Cheap wine buzz and your hand in mine

Moonlight falling through the blinds

Didn’t need a reason, didn’t need permission

Just you and me dancing in the kitchen

Verse 2

Cabinet doors still holding memories

Magnets and notes from a life in between

You laughed when I stepped on your toes

Said “it’s okay, just don’t let go”

Pre-Chorus

Streetlight humming through the window pane

Your hair smells like summer rain

Every song feels like it’s written

For moments like dancing in kitchens

Chorus

Yeah, dancing in the kitchen, barefoot on tile

Your heartbeat slowing me down

We ain’t chasing fireworks or city lights

Just letting the moment hang around

Cheap wine buzz and your hand in mine

Stars sneaking in through the blinds

Didn’t need a reason, didn’t need permission

Just you and me dancing in the kitchen

Bridge

If tomorrow comes knocking too soon

I’ll still feel you in this room

Every time I hear that tune

I’ll be right back here with you

Final Chorus (Soft → Lift)

Still dancing in the kitchen, same old floor

Same kind of love I’m hoping for

If this is all we ever do

It’s more than enough, me and you

No crowd, no stage, no grand ambition

Just a night that feels like tradition

If I ever need reminding

I’ll find you there

Dancing in the kitchen

Outro

Yeah… just you and me

Dancing in the kitchen
