Dance With Me, Dearie (Eddie Biggins)

I went down to the park where we played with the kids Don’t you remember it, dear? It was fun at the time but the memory fades With every passing year And today you may not even know who I am Just a stranger who brought you a song It’s the one that we chose for the day we were wed Take my hand and waltz along

[chorus:] Won’t you dance with me, dearie, ‘til twilight comes Let’s not waste a moment we’re given Come and dance with me, dearie, just one more time We are not done livin’

So I brought you these photos of old memories Here’s your whole family tree That’s your mom and your dad... No, they died long ago And this one’s you and me Oh yes, we used to dance pretty often like that What a wonderful pair we were then And I think that I’d probably give anything Just to be that way again

[chorus:]

[instrumental]

And today you may not even know who I am Just a stranger who brought you a song It’s the one that we chose for the day we were wed Take my hand and waltz along

[chorus 2x:]
