You can dance

"Save the last dance for me"

You can dance
Ev'ry dance with the guy
Who gives you the eye,
Let him hold you tight
You can smile
Ev'ry smile for the man
Who held your hand
'Neath the pale moonlight
But don't forget
Who's taking you home
And in whose arms
You're gonna be
So darlin',
Save the last dance for me.

Oh, I know
That the music's fine
Like sparkling wine
Go and have your fun
Laugh and sing
But while we're apart
Don't give your heart to anyone
But don't forget
Who's taking you home
And in whose arms
You're gonna be
So darlin',
Save the last dance for me.

Baby don't you know I love you so
Can't you feel it when we touch
I will never never let you go
I love you oh so much

You can dance go
And carry on
Till the night is gone
And it's time to go
If he asks
If you're all alone
Can he take you home
You must tell him no
'Cause don't forget
Who's taking you home
And in whose arm's
You're gonna be
So darlin',
Save the last dance for me

Save the last dance for me
Save the last dance for me

Mort Shuman - Doc Pomus
