Save the Last Dance for Uswords and music by Andy Campolieto
If I were to take your hand tonight
Could we dance under the stars
Just one more time?
I know that was long ago
But I'm no good at letting go of you
Every day feels like I'm doing time
Inside a box of letters you used to write
I think about where you are
And if you found what you're looking for
Without me, love
Some things will never change
But I promised you I'd never
Let you down for long
Save the last dance for us
I feel your arms around me all the time
You probably think I'm crazy, and you're right
I used to think I was sensible
But that's before I tried to go
Without you, love
Some things will never change
But I promised you I'd never
Let you down for long
Like you let me down: for good
I searched this world to find you
From New York to Tennessee
Lost you somewhere in the Carolinas
So many miles, so many miles
Before I sleep
Twenty-five years and still no word
You were married in the Midwest last I heard
Two kids and a couple of cars
Me, I'm still singing in bars
About you, love
Some things will never change
I promised you I'd never
Let you down for long
Like you let me down: for good
Save the last dance for us
I'll save the last dance for us
If you want
