She was going to pieces when he walked in the door
She just had to see him, she can't wait no more
Tonight he'll be with him no matter the cost
As the band plays the Last Cheater's Waltz

He tells her he loves her, the music plays on
He tells her he needs her, but someone's at home
The ball game's all over and she knows she's lost
As the band plays the Last Cheater's Waltz

And oooh-oooh-ooohh don't they sound lonely
And oooh-oooh-ooohh don't they play sad
And oooh-oooh-ooohh three quarter only
Watch how he holds her 
As they dance to the Last Cheater's Waltz

(Instrumental Break)

And oooh-oooh-ooohh don't they sound lonely
And oooh-oooh-ooohh don't they play sad
And oooh-oooh-ooohh three quarter only
Watch how he holds her 
As they dance to the Last Cheater's Waltz
