Lyrics
It's the last waltz they will play tonight. Why don't we dance and hold each other tight, as they play the last waltz.
Hear the moonlight whisper, hear the echoes of the night. So still, let the music play. Let the morning wait.
It's the last waltz they will play tonight. Why don't we dance and hold each other tight, as they play the last waltz.
Take my hand my darling, close your eyes and dance with me. So slow, let the music play, let the morning wait...
Darkness falling, blackbird calling. Shadows waiting, moonlight fading.
Forever dance with me tonight. Forever dance with me tonight.
It's the last waltz they will play tonight, why don't we dance and hold each other tight. As they play the last waltz.
