When We Dance in the Kitchen

[Verse] Turn the dial on that old tape deck, Grandma's favorite song starts to play. Kids roll their eyes as we take the floor, While we laugh and sway. [Verse 2] Mom’s in her apron, Dad’s in his boots, We twirl around like we’re seventeen. Our kids cringe and hide their faces, Caught between a smile and a scream. [Chorus] Oh, they can't stand when we dance in the kitchen, Singing like no one’s around to hear. Embarrassed of the love they're missin', But one day they'll hold these memories near. [Verse 3] Chores get delayed as we sing out of tune, Pretending we’re stars on the Opry stage. Their faces flush as we dip and swoon, But they’ll miss us in this act someday. [Verse 4] Football practice and friends down the street, They’d rather be anywhere but here. But that old kitchen’s our little retreat, Love's melody loud and clear. [Chorus] Oh, they can't stand when we dance in the kitchen, Singing like no one’s around to hear. Embarrassed of the love they're missin', But one day they'll hold these memories near.
