Don't be sad

'Cause what we had was so fine

Before we go let's go back

To where we met the first time

One last trip around the floor

And I'll hold you like I did before

Take my hand and I'll ask our friend in the band.



Play something we can dance to

Play something nice and slow

And maybe while we're waltzing I can change your mind

While the lights are low

Hey mister steel guitar man

Can you make her cry

Play something we can dance to

Before we say goodnight.



If you want

I'll drive you home just once more

Park the car then arm and arm

I'll walk you to your front door

I'll just let that motor run

Leave the windows down just for fun

'Cause you never know what we'll hear on the radio

They might.



Play something we can dance to

Play something nice and slow

And maybe while we're waltzing I can change your mind

While the lights are low

Hey mister steel guitar man

Can you make her cry

Play something we can dance to

Before we say goodnight.



Before she says goodbye...
