Waltzing For Dreamers

 

Play me a blue song and turn down the light

I’m as sad as a proud man can be sad tonight

Let me dream on just let me sway

While sweet violins and mandolins play

Miss you don’t know me but can’t we pretend

That we care for each other till the night has to end

 

One step for aching, two steps for breaking

Waltzing’s for dreamers and losers in love

One step for sighing, two steps for crying

Waltzing’s for dreamers and losers in love

 

 

They say love’s for gamblers and the pendulum swings

I bet hard on love and I lost everything

Don’t send me home now put a shot in my arm

We’ll drink to old memories; we’ll drink in the dawn

`        Mr. Band leader won’t you play one more time

For there’s good folded money in this pocket of mine

 

One step for aching, two steps for breaking

Waltzing’s for dreamers and losers in love

One step for sighing, two steps for crying

Waltzing’s for dreamers and losers in love
