Brand New Tennessee Waltz

Oh you have such a pretty face
You favor a girl I once knew
I imagine that she's in Tennessee
Oh lord, I should be there too
'Cause I've a sadness that's too sad to be true

But I left Tennessee in a hurry, dear
The same way that I'm leavin' you
For love is mainly just memories
And everyone's got them a few
So when I'm gone I'll be glad to've loved you

At the brand new Tennessee waltz
You're literally waltzing on air
At the brand new Tennessee waltz
There's no telling who will be there

When I leave it'll be as I found you, love
Descending Victorian stairs
I'm feelin' like one of your photographs
Trapped while I was putting on air
And not even you left to care

Have all your passionate violins play
A tune for a Tennessee kid
Who's feelin' like leavin' another town
With no place to go if he did
'Cause they'll catch you wherever you've hid

At the brand new Tennessee waltz
You're literally waltzing on air
At the brand new Tennessee waltz
There's no telling who will be there
