Lyrics

You can dance
Every dance with the guy
Who gives you the eye
Let him hold you tight
You can smile
Every smile for the man
Who held your hand
Beneath the pale moonlight
But don't forget who's taking ya home
And then who's arms you're gonna be
So darlin'
Save the last dance for me

Oh I know
That the music's fine
Like sparklin' wine
So go and have your fun
Laugh and sing
But while were apart
Don't you give your heart to anyone
And don't forget who's taking me home
And then who's arms I wanna be
Oh darlin'
Save the last dance for me

Let me dance
And carry on
Till the night is gone
And it's time to go
And if he asks
If you're all alone
Can he take you home
You must tell him No!
I won't forget who's taking me home
And then who's arms I'm gonna be
Darlin'
Save the last dance for me

Don't forget who's taking ya home
And then who's arms you're gonna be
Ah darlin'
Save the last dance for Lee
O.k. Lee

Save the last dance for me
Save the last dance for me
Save the last dance for me
Save the last dance for me
