About This Song


This is a song about not giving up on finding that one person you are meant to be with. You never know when love is going to ask you to dance.

Hi Adkin, another touching song. There are so many lonely hearts out there and everyone hopes to find the love of his life, but not everyone is successful, but giving up is not an option. You found beautiful words to describe it.

Good story, nice images - I can see the room - a hopeful m sage in the hook. A hooky melody too. Nice!

Good song title—very solid middle of the road country from 20 years ago—that’s NOT a criticism, simply an observation/frame of reference. Marvin, I DO think you’re a very solid songwriter!!!

Darn good lyrics. I can definitely imagine hearing this one on the radio. Very well-done demo, too. I like it.

Love At First Dance

Written by Marvin Adcock

In the heart of the night
To the beat of a drum
Drawn like moths to the light
The hopeful lonely come

She lets the night unfold
Out on that old dance floor
Whiskey lies are told
She’s heard them all before

Sometimes it’s hard for her to roll the dice
Her heart’s been stepped on more than once or twice
Still she’d rather trust in circumstance
Than give up believin’ in romance
Cause sometimes you find love at first dance

Under soft colored light
As the band plays on
She’s danced so many times
She smells of cheap cologne

Sometimes it’s hard for her to roll the dice
Her heart’s been stepped on more than once or twice
Still she’d rather trust in circumstance
Than give up believin’ in romance
Cause sometimes you find love at first dance

As the last song plays
While walkin’ to the door
She hears a new voice say
Won’t you please dance one more

Sometimes it’s hard for her to roll the dice
Her heart’s been stepped on more than once or twice
Still she’d rather trust in circumstance
Than give up believin’ in romance
Cause sometimes you find love
Yeah sometimes you find love
Oh sometimes you find love....at first dance
