The Waltz

[Verse 1]

Back at that high school cotillion

Chances were one in a million

She had that angora sweater

How could I ever forget her?

She had a body you'd kill for

You hoped that she'd take the pill for

She up and said I'm a dancer

Don't tell me, you are a Cancer

[Bridge]

And some sez it's true

It's all she can do

Take her or leave her

But let her get hold of you

[Verse 2]

I made my move to the floor

One lonely night left in store

I can still prove I am sure

She is what loving is for

The girl is the pride of fandango

The world takes my mind with a tango

A star in the night lights Topanga

Far from the lights of Tarzana

[Bridge]

Be-bop a-da-na

Oh, be-bop na-na-na

We dance for the chance of romance, boy

Ain't it the truth?

You take two steps forward

Take one step right back to your youth

So long ago, you were a Romeo

[Verse 3]

Went back to my alma mater

I asked to dance with her daughter

She said if it's not a bother

First dance is just for my father

Love can make this old world tremble

Life is someone you resemble

We dance and the mood starts to tumble

We kiss and my heart starts to crumble

[Outro]

Ah

Hoop-do-be-doo, hoop-do-be-doo ah

Ah

Hoop-do-be-doo, hoop-do-be-doo

Ah

Hoop-do-be-doo, hoop-do-be-doo

(Ah)

Ah

Hoop-do-be-doo, hoop-do-be-doo
