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 |
|
Now i know just how much i have lost |
|
Yes, i lost my little darlin' the night they were playin' |
|
That beautiful 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 |
|
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 |
|
She goes dancin' with the darkness to the tennessee waltz |
|
And i feel like i'm falling apart |
|
And it's stronger than drink and it's deeper than sorrow |
|
This darkness she left in my heart |
|
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 |
