Lyrics

[Verse 1]
E
 You can dance
Every dance with the guy
Who gives you the eye
        B7
Let him hold you tight
You can smile
Every smile for the man
Who held your hand
           E
'Neath the pale moonlight

[Chorus]
E             A
 But don't forget who's taking you home
                         E
And in whose arms you're gonna be
      B7
So darlin'
                        E      E
Save the last dance for me, mmm

[Verse 2]
Oh, I know
That the music's fine
Like sparkling wine
       B7
Go and have your fun
Laugh and sing
But while we're apart
Don't give your heart
   E
To anyone

[Chorus]
E             A
 But don't forget who's taking you home
                         E
And in whose arms you're gonna be
      B7
So darlin'
                        E
Save the last dance for me, mmm

[Bridge]
E                       B7
 Baby, don't you know I love you so?
                          E
Can't you feel it when we touch?
                    B7
I will never, never let you go
                  E
I love you, oh, so much

[Verse 3]
E
 You can dance
Go and carry on
Till the night is gone
         B7
And it's time to go
If he asks
If you're all alone
Can he take you home
         E
You must tell him no

[Chorus]
E                A
 'Cause don't forget who's taking you home
                         E
And in whose arms you're gonna be
      B7
So darlin'
                        E
Save the last dance for me
