"Annual Waltz" lyrics
"Annual Waltz"
The night is so cold and life is so old
And the wind is now heavy with day dreams
And I hold your hand to the music
And think of the days of our youth
Every year at this time, when our feet so inclined
And we hear those old musical memories
We slip thru this dance
Like the first time we started in falling in love
This we do, and I am still with you
And the heartbeat still calls
For the annual waltz
It is our theme song for falling in love
Oh, I laughed at you, you laughed at me
While our grandchildren's children have babies
Way off in the future, we're long gone
But someone still mentions our name
Old pictures in books, small shady nooks
Where descendants can learn all about us
But the dancing goes on to the fiddle
As they still play the Annual Waltz
This we do, and I am still with you
And the heartbeat still calls
For the annual waltz
It is our theme song for falling in love
