Tennessee Waltz
I was dancin' with my darlin'
To the Tennessee Waltz
When an old friend I happened to see
I had a new distance to my darling
And while they were dancing
My friends stole my sweetheart from me
I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz
Cause I know now just what I have lost
Yes, I lost my little darlin'
The night they were playin'
The beautiful Tennessee Waltz
I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz
Cause I know now just what I have lost
Yes, I lost my little darlin'
The night they were playin'
The beautiful Tennessee Waltz
She comes dancing through the darkness
To the Tennessee Waltz
And I feel like I'm falling apart
And it's stronger than drink
And it's deeper than sorrow
This darkness she's left in my heart.
Now remember the night
And the Tennessee Waltz
Cause I know just how much I have lost
Yes, I lost my little darlin
The night they were playin'
The beautiful Tennessee Waltz
