Save the last dance for me, he said,
As the music swirled in the air;
Eyes that smiled into mine that night
Begged me to just be there.
The night wore on, and soon the song
Began playing, a slow romantic tune;
A waltz that stole my heart
As we danced around the room.
Stolen kiss, midnight bliss,
And a promise that he
Would come back from the war
And hurry on home to me.
Months went by without word,
My soldier said he'd save
The last dance for me;
Now I stand by his grave.
A waltz now plays
In a sadder world that gave
Just a little happiness to me,
Just before the grave.
