Save the Last Dance
Cherish the Moment: Save Your Last Dance for Love
Lyrics
You can dance-every dance with the guy
You are free to dance with any guy.
Who gives you the eye, let him hold you tight
Dance with the guy who shows interest; let him embrace you tightly.
You can smile-every smile for the man
Smile for the man who held your hand under the moonlight.
Who held your hand neath the pale moon light
Remember the man with whom you shared a moment in the moonlight.
But don't forget who's takin' you home
Remember who will escort you home.
And in whose arms you're gonna be
Consider whose arms you will be in.
So darlin' save the last dance for me
Save the last dance for the speaker.
Oh I know that the music's fine
Acknowledging that the music is enjoyable.
Like sparklin' wine, go and have your fun
Enjoy the moment like sparkling wine, have fun.
Laugh and sing, but while we're apart
Laugh and sing, but be cautious with your heart while apart.
Don't give your heart to anyone
Advise against giving your heart to anyone else.
But don't forget who's takin' you home
Remember who will take you home.
And in whose arms you're gonna be
Consider whose arms you will be in.
So darlin' save the last dance for me
Reiterating the plea to save the last dance for the speaker.
Baby don't you know I love you so
Expressing deep love for the listener.
Can't you feel it when we touch
Highlighting the emotional connection during physical touch.
I will never, never let you go
Promising to never let go.
I love you oh so much
Emphasizing profound love.
You can dance, go and carry on
Encouraging to dance freely until the night ends.
Till the night is gone and it's time to go
Dance until it's time to leave.
If he asks if you're all alone
If asked to go home by someone else, refuse.
Can he walk you home, you must tell him no
Decline the offer to be walked home by another.
'Cause don't forget who's taking you home
Remember who will escort you home.
And in whose arms you're gonna be
Consider whose arms you will be in.
Save the last dance for me
Repeat of the plea to save the last dance for the speaker.
Oh I know that the music's fine
Reiterating that the music is enjoyable.
Like sparklin' wine, go and have your fun
Enjoy the moment like sparkling wine, have fun.
Laugh and sing, but while we're apart
Laugh and sing, but be cautious with your heart while apart.
Don't give your heart to anyone
Advise against giving your heart to anyone else.
And don't forget who's takin' you home
Remember who will take you home.
And in whose arms you're gonna be
Consider whose arms you will be in.
So darling, save the last dance for me
Repeating the plea to save the last dance for the speaker.
So don't forget who's taking you home
Reiterate who will take you home.
Or in whose arms you're gonna be
Emphasize whose arms you will be in.
So darling, Save the last dance for me
Final plea to save the last dance for the speaker.
Oh baby won't you save the last dance for me
Additional plea to save the last dance for the speaker.
Oh baby won't you promise that you'll save
Request for a promise to save the last dance.
The last dance for me save the last dance
Reiteration of saving the last dance.
The very last dance for me
Final emphasis on saving the very last dance for the speaker.
