Only The Music

The swirling of dresses,
 the scuffing of shoes--
 "Should my hair be in tresses?"
 "What tie do I choose?"--
 As the hall fills with dancers,
 and the strings start to sound--
 We will take that first step,
 and we won't touch the ground--
 For there's only the music,
 that plays on and on--
 Yes, there's only the music,
 the heartaches are gone--
 We can stand close together,
 while the world dances by--
 "Cause there's only the music,
 between you and I--
 Yes, there's only the music,
 between you and I
 A head on a shoulder,
 an arm 'round a waist,
 If the weather gets colder,
 we both will be braced--
 For whatever the trouble,
 we still have a chance--
 If we hold hands together,
 and take time to dance--
 The clock hours bending,
 the hands spinning 'round--
 From beginning to ending,
 as dancers we're bound--
 With the memories like treasures,
 all safe in their vaults--
 When we hear the last measures,
 we'll dance the grand waltz--
 For there's only the music,
 that plays on and on--
 Yes, there's only the music,
 the heartaches are gone--
 We can stand close together,
 while the world dances by--
 "Cause there's only the music,
 between you and I--
 Yes, there's only the music,
 between you and I
 For there's only the music,
 that plays on and on--
 Yes, there's only the music,
 the heartaches are gone--
 We can stand close together,
 while the world dances by--
 "Cause there's only the music,
 between you and I--
 Yes, there's only the music,
 between you and I
