"Honky Tonk Waltz" lyrics

"Honky Tonk Waltz"

The lights are dim and low in the tavern
As I sit all alone with a heart that's lost
But the laughing crowd don't know tears are ready to flow
As I listen to the honky tonk waltz

It's the same waltz we used to dance together
Now you're gone and I'll suffer alone
I'm so blue tonight while another holds you tight
And I listen to the honky tonk waltz

There's no use to go to my lonely room
I can't sleep I'll just turn and toss
So when the crowd says goodbye I'll just sit here and cry
As I listen to the honky tonk waltz

It's the same waltz we used to dance together
Now you're gone and I'll suffer alone
I'm so blue tonight while another holds you tight
And I listen to the honky tonk waltz
