Tennessee Waltz
Lost Love in the Tennessee Waltz
Lyrics
I was dancing with my darling
I was dancing with my beloved.
To the Tennessee waltz
We were dancing to the Tennessee waltz.
When an old friend I happened to meet
Encountered an old friend during the dance.
I introduced her to my darling
I introduced my friend to my beloved.
And while they were dancing
While they were dancing together,
My friend stole my sweetheart from me
My friend took my sweetheart away from me.
I remember the night
Reflecting on the memorable night.
And the Tennessee waltz
Recalling the Tennessee waltz.
I know now just what I have lost
Realizing the extent of what I've lost.
Yes I lost my little darling
Expressing the loss of my beloved.
The night they were playing
Referring to the specific night they were playing music.
The beautiful Tennessee waltz
Highlighting the beauty of the Tennessee waltz.
I remember the night
Recalling again the memorable night.
And the Tennessee waltz
Reflecting on the Tennessee waltz once more.
I know now just what I have lost
Reiterating the realization of loss.
Yes I lost my little darling
Re-emphasizing the pain of losing my beloved.
The night they were playing
Referring again to the specific night with the beautiful Tennessee waltz.
The beautiful Tennessee waltz
Reiterating the beauty of the Tennessee waltz.
Oh the beautiful Tennessee waltz
Concluding with the sentiment of the beautiful Tennessee waltz.
