I want to dance this waltz with you
Swaying gently to the sounds
As we waltz our way through life
My love for you abounds

I have danced with you many times
As the years have passed us by
Tonight I want one more dance
Beneath the star filled sky

Gently hold me in your strong arms
One more waltz is in my heart
Whisper sweet words in my ear
Pretend we will never part

Waltz with me tonight my darling
Dance with me beneath the sky
Pretend that life is forever
Never parting, no good byes

I know that you can’t really waltz
And hold me in your sweet arms
Twirling me around the room
Subduing me with charm

You lie there barely breathing
The laughter in your eyes is gone
Each breath you take is difficult
Soon I will be alone

But for tonight let us pretend
That you and I are fine
Let us waltz through deaths’ door
The final waltz this time
