verse 1
It's been a long time since I've had a good time,
And I think it's high time I did,
Could I have this dance, it feels like romance,
And it's good to be feelin' like this,
The lights are down low, the bands playing slow,
To the beautiful Tennessee waltz,
How many love songs, how many dance floors,
Have lovers like us waltzed across.
So waltz me to heaven tonight,
To the waltz of the angels we blissfully fly,
Long past the milky-way to paradise,
Won't you waltz me to heaven tonight.
Interlude
Waltz me to heaven tonight,
Honky-Tonk angels in heavenly flight,
With the moon as our halo and the stars in our eyes,
Won't you waltz me to heaven tonight.
Waltz me to heaven tonight,
Hold your heavenly body against mine so tight,
As the band softly plays on this magical night,
We'll dance past the milky-way to paradise,
With the moon as our halo & the stars in our eyes,
Won't you waltz me to heaven tonight,
Won't you waltz me to heaven tonight.
