The Tennessee Waltz

I was dancin', with my darlin, to the Tennessee Waltz
When an old friend, I happened, to see
I introduced him, to my darlin, and while they were dancin'
My friend stole, my sweetheart from me

I 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'
That beautiful Tennessee Waltz

My heart was breaking, to the music, of the Tennessee Waltz
How could I, keep watching, her dance
Could she see me, while I waited, to the melody playin'
My heart's empty, without her romance

Well it must, be the fault, of the Tennessee Waltz
Wish I'd known just, how much, it would cost
But I didn't, see it comin', it's all over but the cryin'
Blame it all on, the Tennessee Waltz

Now I wonder, how a dance, like the Tennessee Waltz
Could have broken, my heart, so complete
Well I couldn't, blame my darlin, and who could help fallin'
In love with, my darlin' so sweet

I 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'
That beautiful Tennessee Waltz
