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 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 nothing 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
