Lyrics Harry Nilsson

Harry Nilsson

Save the Last Dance for Me

You can dance every dance with the guy

Who gave you the eye

Let him hold you tight.

You can smile every smile for the man

Who held your hand

'Neath the pale moonlight.

But don't forget who's taking you home

And in whose arms you're gonna be

Oh darling, save the last dance for me.

Yes I know that the music's fine

Like sparkling wine

Go on and have your fun.

Laugh and sing, but while we're apart

Don't give your heart

To anyone.

And don't forget who's taking you home

And in whose arms you're gonna be

Oh darling, save the last dance for me.

Baby don't you know I love you so?

Can't you feel it when we touch?

Baby don't you know I'll never let you go?

I need you oh so much.

You can dance, go on carry on

Till the night is gone

And it's time to go.

And if he asks if you're all alone

And can he take you home

You must tell him no.

Cause don't forget who's taking you home

And in whose arms you're gonna be

Oh darling, save the last dance for me

So darling, save the last dance for me.
