A crowd stood around you
The night when I found you
They each wanted you
In the old homing waltz

Though you never knew me
You smiled and came to me
And I found you mine
In the old homing waltz

This sweet melody
That brought you to me
Will linger forever
In my memory

I found what I prayed for
The arms I was made for
The night when we danced
To the old homing waltz.

(Orchestral Break)

Though you never knew me
You smiled and came to me
And I found you mine
In the old homing waltz

This sweet melody
That brought you to me
Will linger forever
In my memory

I found what I prayed for
The arms I was made for
The night when we danced
To the old homing waltz.
