Tennessee Waltz Songtext / Lyric

I was waltzing with my darling

To the Tennessee Waltz

When an old friend I happened to see

Introduced him to my loved one

And while they were waltzing

My friend stole my sweetheart from me.



I remember the night

And the Tennessee Waltz

'Cause I know just how much I have lost

Yes, I lost my little darling

The night they were playing

That beautiful Tennessee Waltz.






She goes dancin' with the darkness

To the Tennessee Waltz

And I feel like I'm falling apart

And it's stronger than drink

And it's deeper than sorrow

This darkness she left in my heart.



I remember the night

And the Tennessee Waltz

'Cause I know just how much I have lost

Yes, I lost my little darling

The night they were playing

The beautiful Tennessee Waltz

The beautiful Tennessee Waltz...
