Lyrics
The house lights turn low
I'm feeling so lonely
The players have gone home
Do you think you might know me?
Oh, let's take a chance
And dance the last dance
You fall in my arms
There's a blush on your cheek
I use all my cowboy charm
You smile back so sweet
Put your heart in my hands
As we dance the last dance
Darling don't take me wrong
It just feels so right
As we move to this song
I could hold you all night
Maybe I'm just a fool
Building castles of sand
Slowly falling in love
As we dance the last dance
The song nears the end
The last note is played
You whisper "goodnight"
But we can't pull away
For a moment time stands
As we dance one last dance
Yes, for a moment time stands
As we dance the last dance
