It's the last dance, we've come to the last dance They're dimming the lights down, they're hoping we'll go It's obvious they're aware of us, the pair of us, alone on the floor Still I want to hold you like this forever and more It the last song, they're playing the last song The orchestra's yawning, they're sleepy I know They're wondering just when will we leave, but till we leave, keep holding me tight Through the last dance, each beat of the last dance Save me the first dance in your dreams tonight [instrumental-strings and clarinet] They're wondering just when will we leave, but till we leave, keep holding me tight Through the last dance, each beat of the last dance And save me the first dance in your dreams tonight
