the waltz
|
|
Strike up the band let it play
|
Love songs to haunt me and I will stay
|
But when it comes to a waltz
|
Both words and music will ring false
|
For you waltzed in
|
And spun my world
|
Around in dizzy dance
|
I swirled
|
But suddenly
|
You waltzed away from me
|
|
Those violins, they must go
|
So no careless hand with a bow
|
May play on the strings of my heart
|
And make me remember how lovers part
|
|
How you waltzed in
|
And spun my world
|
Around in dizzy dance
|
I swirled
|
But suddenly
|
You waltzed away from me
|
|
Strike up the band let it play
|
Whatever it chooses and I will say
|
Play me a waltz if you will
|
I'll sit here and listen waiting until
|
|
My love returns
|
To take my world
|
And spin it 'round
|
In dizzy swirl
|
Where girl loves boy
|
And boy loves girl
|
And feet don't touch the ground
|
|
|
