The Waltz lyrics

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
