Song Lyrics

You can dance
Every dance with the guy who gives you the eye
Let him hold you tight

You can smile
Every smile for the man who held your hand
Neath the pale moonlight

And don't forget who's taking you home
And in his arms you're gonna be
So, darling (save the last dance for me)
Save the last dance for me, mmm

Oh, I know
That the music's fine like sparkling wine
Go and have your fun

Dance and sing
But while we're apart don't you give your heart to anyone

And don't forget who's taking you home
And in his arms you're gonna be
So, darling (save the last dance for me)
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 his arms you're gonna be
So, darling (save the last dance for me)
Save the last dance for me

Don't, don't forget who's taking you home
And in his arms you're gonna be
So, darling (save the last dance for me)
Save the last dance for me

Whoa, save the last dance for me
Mmm, baby, baby, baby, (save) the last dance for me
Yeah, save that last (save the last dance for me), that last
Mmm (save the last)
