the brand new tennessee waltz

Lyrics

oh, my, but you have a pretty face, you favour a girl that i knew, i imagine that she's still in tennessee, and, by god, i should be there, too, i've a sadness too sad to be true, well i left tennessee in a hurry, dear, the same way that i'm leaving you, but love is mainly just memories, and everyone's got him a few, so when i'm gone i'll be glad to love you, at the brand new tennessee waltz, you're literally waltzing on air, at the brand new tennessee waltz, there's no telling who will be there, when i leave it'll be like i found you, love, descending victorian stairs, feeling like one of your photographs, trapped while i'm putting on airs, and getting even by saying. "who cares", at the brand new tennessee waltz, you're literally waltzing on air, at the brand new tennessee waltz, there's no telling who will be there, so, let all of your passionate violins, play a tune for a tennessee kid, who's feeling like leaving another town, with no place to go if he did, 'cause they'll catch you wherever you're hid, at the brand new tennessee waltz, you're literally waltzing on air, at the brand new tennessee waltz, there's no telling who will be there
