The Waltz Continues

Brian Kennedy


Oh Frances just stop where you are 
Will you listen to us 
We're supposed to be friends 
So how come that each time we talk 
It ends up like this 
You say you're right and I say you're wrong 
'Cause I'm sure I'm right 
And you say my logic is totally gone 
And the waltz continues 

Oh Frances be still for a while 
And I swear I won't say a word 
Come on now crack a smile 
You really have to laugh 
This is just so absurd 
Put on your coat there's a fair come to town 
I'll pay the man, we'll spend the day on the merry go round 
And the waltz continues 

Our words light the blue paper 
Stand back! Fireworks, sparkle and crack! 
That's why I keep coming back 
I keep coming back 

My dear Frances deep down you know 
We're both right 
It's the world that's insane 
It's just dot to dot, the haves to have not 
But the men with the pencils have sawdust for brains 
It's sad and it's funny, it's a joy and it's a groan 
Let's get some beers and go to the graveyard and laugh at the bones 
And the waltz continues 
And the waltz continues
