Hooters - Graveyard Waltz lyrics

rate me

I was walkin' real fast, I was too scared to run <br />

Past this lonesome graveyard where the highway meets the sun <br />

Well that old graveyard's been around since the civil war <br />

I had a feelin' that I'd been here before <br />

<br />

I heard a voice, it was talkin' real slow <br />

She said it's time to make a choice, is it yes or is it no <br />

I said ok, do what you wanna do <br />

Then she took me to a world I never knew <br />

<br />

Where we danced so close, we were teenage ghosts <br />

We were doin' that graveyard waltz <br />

After all is said and done we were just too young <br />

To be doin' that graveyard waltz <br />

<br />

Next thing I knew the first dance was done <br />

But this magic carpet ride had just begun <br />

Heaven only knows where she learned to drive <br />

Between the tombstones and the ones still left alive <br />

<br />

And then that old soul band began to play <br />

In triple time, she was begging me to stay <br />

And when the masquerade had started up again <br />

She said this is the night that never ends <br />

<br />

Where we danced so close, we were teenage ghosts <br />

We were doin' that graveyard waltz <br />

After all is said and done we were just too young <br />

To be doin' that graveyard waltz <br />

<br />

I was walkin' real fast, I was too scared to run
