Song Lyrics
Out on the floor the couples are swaying, out on the floor the couples are swaying
batting her eyes to someone not there
when the changing of partners is no longer new
And closing your eyes, batting her eyes to someone not there
You lead with your heart, a slow country dance on a saturday night, searching for someone to waltz with tonight
and love s never easy or ever as true
Sweethearts in love and others just lonely, and now the perfume is cheap and the make-up is careless
a slow country dance on a saturday night
And closing your eyes, a much lighter step and a much younger face
A slow country dance on a saturday night, out on the floor the couples are swaying
A slow country dance on a saturday night, and closing your eyes Carpenter, a slow country dance on a saturday night
you slide in your coins and the music keeps playing
You lead with your heart, her glass is half full or maybe half empty
Sweethearts in love and others just lonely, out on the floor the couples are swaying, in a smoky old bar you know that it s only
Out on the floor the couples are swaying, you lead with your heart, down at the bar a woman tells stories
You slide in your coins and the music keeps playing, you lead with your heart
To one faded love on the jukebox tonight, to one faded love on the jukebox tonight
Sweethearts in love and others just lonely, but she don t give a damn for those who would cherish Chapin, a slow country dance on a saturday night
Down at the bar a woman tells stories, her glass is half full or maybe half empty, and closing your eyes
When the changing of partners is no longer new, batting her eyes to someone not there Chapin, sweethearts in love and others just lonely
dance just to dance in three-quarter time
Dance just to dance in three-quarter time, but she don t give a damn for those who would cherish Country, batting her eyes to someone not there
Dance just to dance in three-quarter time, to one faded love on the jukebox tonight, searching for someone to waltz with tonight
In a smoky old bar you know that it s only, and love s never easy or ever as true Slow, and closing your eyes
Searching for someone to waltz with tonight, when the changing of partners is no longer new
Sweethearts in love and others just lonely, and love s never easy or ever as true
And closing your eyes, and closing your eyes Slow, out on the floor the couples are swaying
To one faded love on the jukebox tonight, out on the floor the couples are swaying Slow, out on the floor the couples are swaying
But she don t give a damn for those who would cherish, and now the perfume is cheap and the make-up is careless Carpenter, you slide in your coins and the music keeps playing
A much lighter step and a much younger face, when the changing of partners is no longer new Chapin, you slide in your coins and the music keeps playing
Sweethearts in love and others just lonely, out on the floor the couples are swaying
A slow country dance on a saturday night, and closing your eyes, out on the floor the couples are swaying
