The Drifters - Save The Last Dance For Me

You can dance

Every dance with the guy who gives you the eyeet him hold you tight

You can smile

Every 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, hmm

Oh, I know (oh, I know)

That the music's fine like sparkling wine go and have your fun (yes, I know)

Laugh and sing (oh, I know)

But while we're apart don't give your heart to anyone (yes, I know)

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, hmm

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 (you can dance)

Go and carry on till the night is gone and it's time to go (you can dance)

If he asks (you can dance)

If you're all alone, an he take you home, you must tell him no (you can dance)

'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

'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, hmm

Save the last dance for me, mmm-hmm

Save the last dance for me

Mmm-hmm, save
