Lyrics
- This waltz that you saved for me
I’ll always keep in my memory
This waltz, tho’ it means “Goodbye”
I’ll always treasure each tender measure
Chorus
Ever in dreams with you I’ll sway, dear
To the waltz you saved for me
Ever in dreams while I’m away, dear
I’ll hear this melody
Whisper “Goodbye” and gently say, dear
That in all the days to be
You will sometimes remember
The waltz you saved for me
- This night I will set apart
Something to keep down deep in my heart
This night, tho’ it means a tear
Will be a token of love dreams broken
