about

The Hop is a nightclub in York, Pennsylvania. I've never gone in, but have twice stayed at the Motel 6 next door.

lyrics

In those summer days
We used to slip away
Into the smoky haze of the nightclub

None of the friends we knew
Ever had a clue
It was where me and you would always meet up

And we would dance all night
Under the garish lights
Just two kids with no rhythmic coordination
But we didn’t really care about that

Always the youngest there
Breathing the same stale air
Totally unaware of all around us

The games of courtship played
The suitors and their dames
The desperate displays that would surround us

And we would dance all night
Under the garish lights
Just two kids with no rhythmic coordination
And we didn’t really care about that

I heard the place is still there
With that same stale air
And the tinted hair of all the usuals

If we ever find
Ourselves back at the same time
We should make it a night - it would be beautiful
