Simply a Waltz
There’s a dance hall under my roomAnd I hear the music they playSongs about love and romanceSongs for lovers to dance toAs I sit alone in my roomAnd I hear the orchestra playOh! I know I’d go insaneIf it weren’t for one little refrain
Simply a waltz that keeps going around and aroundLike a merry-go-roundIn the springWith the music swayingI start to dreamTill it no longer seemsOnly a waltz that keeps turning and turning and turningTill my heart is yearning to singOh my love in your arms hold me tightAnd we’ll waltz ‘round and ‘round all the night
Sunday night there’s always a danceBut so far I’ve never been askedWhat is there for me to doAll alone with the musicI don’t know, it may be by chance,That they saved the waltz for the lastSo I lay awake in bedAnd I let the song run through my head
When they start playing the waltz that goes ‘round and ‘roundLike a merry-go-roundIn the springWith the music swayingI start to dreamTill it no longer seemsOnly a waltz that keeps turning and turning and turningTill my heart is yearning to singOh my love in your arms hold me tightAnd we’ll waltz in my dreams all the night
