Well I know that I've been wanting all night long To get you on the floor to dance Well I also see he's got you there wrapped in his arms so I won't get the chance So I thought I'd take this opportunity to talk to you While he's gone to use the phone Oh won't you please come dance with me the Next to the last waltz, then I'll go home Well there's people here who know us both who'd give anything to give their tongues a chance to wag Abd we all know how people talkt the most about Stuff they know the least about If that is why you're sitting there with him Not giving me the time of day Oh won't you please come dance with me the Next to the last waltz then I'll go away If you'd only dance with me I'd have all the world to see That I was the king for just a little while I could waltz you round and round Back and forth and upside down To show you why we waltz this waltz together Why we should waltz forever Well he's so young and handsome wonder why he's all alone at the nightclub tonight Does he notice that I'm sitting hree just leaning back In boredom just for his delight And when he gets back will he find you there or Out on the dance floor doing the jig with me Oh won't you please come dance with me the Next to the last waltz Then I'll be set free You keep looking there like you see something That you really wanted all the time And I keep looking back it's an attack of me not making up my mind And the guy beside you's fidgeting Just trying to keep his seat upon the chair Oh won't you please come dance with me the Next to the last waltz then I just won't care Oh won't you please come dance with me the Next to the last waltz then I just won't care
