Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
But don't forget who's takin' you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darlin', save the last dance for me
[Verse 2]
Mmm, oh, I know (Oh, I know)
That the music's fine, like sparkling wine, go and have your fun (Yes, I know, oh, I know, yes, I know, oh, I know)
Laugh and sing, but while we're apart, don't give your heart to anyone (Yes, I know, oh, I know, yes, I know, oh, I know, yes, I know)
But don't forget who's takin' you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darlin', save the last dance for me
[Bridge]
Mmm, 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
[Verse 3]
You can dance (You can dance)
Go and carry on till the night is gone, and it's time to go (You can dance, you can dance, you can dance, you can dance)
If he asks if you're all alone, can he take you home, you must tell him, "No" (You can dance, you can dance, you can dance, you can dance)
'Cause don't forget who's takin' you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darlin', save the last dance for me
[Outro]
'Cause don't forget who's takin' you home
And in whose arms, you're gonna be
So darlin', save the last dance for me
Mmm, save the last dance for me
Mmhmm, save the last dance for me
