Waltzing's for Dreamers

Oh play me a blues song and fade down the lights
I'm sad as a proud man can be sad tonight
Just let me stay here, just let me sway
While the sweet violins and the saxophone play
And Miss, you don't know me but can we pretend
That we care for each other, till the band reach the end

One step for aching
Two steps for breaking
Waltzing's for dreamers
And losers in love

One step for sighing
Two steps for crying
Waltzing's for dreamers
And losers in love
Losers in love

Oh they say love's for gamblers and the pendulum swings
I bet hard on love and I lost everything
So just let me stay here, put a shot in my arm
We'll drink out old memories and drink in the dawn
And Mr. Bandleader, play one more time
Cuz I've good folding money in this pocket of mine

One step for aching
Two steps for breaking
Waltzing's for dreamers
And losers in love

One step for sighing
Two steps for crying
Waltzing's for dreamers
And losers in love
Losers in love

And Mr. Bandleader, play one more time
Cuz I've good folding money in this pocket of mine

One step for aching
Two steps for breaking
Waltzing's for dreamers
And losers in love

One step for sighing
Two steps for crying
Waltzing's for dreamers
And losers in love
Losers in love
Losers in love
Losers in love
