022 - Save The Last Dance For Me
Verse 1
You can dance, ev-`ry dance with the one that
gives you the eye, let him hold you tight.
You can smile, ev-`ry smile for the one that
holds your hand, in the pale moon-light.
^ Just don't for-get who's tak-ing you home
and in whose arms you're gon-na be --
so dar-lin' - save the last dance for me.
Verse 2
Oh, I know that the mu-sic is fine,
like spark-ling wine, go and have your fun.
Laugh and sing, but while we're a-part
don't give your heart to an-y-one.
^ Just don't for-get who's tak-ing you home
and in whose arms you're gon-na be --
so dar-lin' - save the last dance for me.
Bridge
Ba-by don't you know I love you so?
Can't you feel it when we touch?
^ I will nev-er, nev-er let you go.
^ I love you, oh, so much.
Verse 3
You can dance, go and car-ry on
`till the night is gone 'till it's time to go.
If he asks if you're all a-lone
can he take you home, you've got to tell him no.
^ ’cause don't for-get who's tak-ing you home
and in whose arms you're gon-na be --
so dar-lin' - save the last dance for me.
Verse 3 repeat
You can dance, go and car-ry on
`till the night is gone 'till it's time to go.
If he asks if you're all a-lone
can he take you home, you've got to tell him no.
^ ’cause don't for-get who's tak-ing you home
and in whose arms you're gon-na be --
so dar-lin' - save the last dance for me.
