Jitterbug Waltz

Lyrics

The night is getting on
 The band is getting slow
 The crowd is almost gone
 And here we are still dancing
 Nothin' to do but waltz
 Our feet can barely move
 My legs are yelling "woah!"
 But we're in such a groove
 That love is still advancing
 Nothin' to do but waltz
 You can't suggest that we could go on jitterbuggin'
 
 We've nothin' left for moves more strenuous than huggin'
 But we don't need much room to gently cut a rug in, we two
 ♪
 I'm tired and out of juice
 And yet from head to toe
 My body's feeling loose and warm and kinda superb
 Nothin' to do but waltz
 The minutes slip away
 My arms just won't let go
 I think I'd like to stay 'til we're the only couple
 Nothin' to do but waltz
 You never know how far this sort of thing will get you
 We're not as tired as we would like to think, I bet you
 You'd stay up half the night with me if I would let you
 So come, let the waltz play again
 ♪

 That love is still advancing
 Nothin' to do but waltz
 You can't suggest that we could go on jitterbuggin'
