I was dancing with my darlin'
|
to the Tennessee Waltz
|
When an old friend I happened to see
|
Introduced him to my loved one
|
and while they were waltzing
|
My friend stole my sweetheart from me.
|
I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz
|
Now I know just how much I have lost
|
Yes I lost my little darlin'
|
The night they were playing
|
The beautiful Tennessee Waltz.
|
She comes dancing through the darkness
|
To the Tennessee Waltz
|
And I feel like I'm falling apart
|
And it's stronger than drink
|
And it's deeper than sorrow
|
This darkness she's left in my heart.
