HOMECOMING WALTZ, THE


as rec by Vera Lynn w members of HM forces  1954


The music was playing,
The dancers were swaying,
But I sat alone in the homecoming waltz.
They all celebrated,
But I only waited
To hold you again in the homecoming waltz.

Then a miracle happened as I sat apart,
You walked in the room and right back to my heart.
At last we're together for ever and ever,
And I'm in your arms for the homecoming waltz.

You walked in the room and right back to my heart.
At last we're together for ever and ever,
And I'm in your arms for the homecoming waltz.
