I never meant to be so bad to you

One thing I said that I would never do

One look from you and I would fall from grace

And that would wipe this smile right from my face

Do you remember when we used to dance

And incidence arose from circumstance

One thing led to another, we were young

And we would scream together songs unsung

'Cause it was the heat of the moment

Telling me what your heart meant

The heat of the moment shone in your eyes

And now you find yourself in '82

The disco hot-spots hold no charm for you

You can't concern yourself with bigger things

You catch the pearl and ride the dragon's wings

'Cause it was the heat of the moment

Telling me what your heart meant

The heat of the moment shone in your eyes

And when your looks are gone and you're alone

How many nights you sit beside the phone?

What were the things you wanted for yourself?

Teenage ambitions you remember well

'Cause it was the heat of the moment

Telling me what your heart meant

The heat of the moment shone in your eyes

'Cause it was the heat of the moment

Telling me what your heart meant

The heat of the moment shone in your eyes

Heat of the moment

Heat of the moment

The heat of the moment shone in your eyes

Heat of the moment

Heat of the moment

The heat of the moment shone in your eyes
