Play me a blues song and fade down the light
I'm as sad as a proud woman can be tonight
Just let me dream on, just let me sway
While the sweet violins and the saxophones play
Miss, you don't know me, but can't we pretend
That we care for each other 'til the band reach the end?
One step for achin', two steps for breakin'
And waltz sings for dreamers, losers in love
One step for sighin', two steps for cryin'
And waltz sings for dreamers, losers in love
Oh, now they say love's for gamblers, oh, the pendulum swing
I bet it all on love and I lost everything
So don't send me home now, put a shot in my arm
We'll drink out old memories 'til we drink in the dawn
Mr. Bandleader, won't you play one more time?
For I've got folding money in this pocket of mine
And one step for achin', two steps for breakin'
And waltz sings for dreamers, losers in love
One step for sighin', two steps for cryin'
And waltz sings for dreamers, losers in love
One step for achin', two steps for breakin'
Waltz sings for dreamers, losers in love
One step for sighin', two steps for cryin'
Waltz sings for dreamers, losers in love
Waltz sings for dreamers, losers in love
