Save A Dance
Maureen:
I see stars in your cloudless eyes,
If you didn’t care,
Then why’d you cry?
You believed so strong,
That we went wrong
The proof is in your touch
Terry:
You were so young when I saw your face,
We lit a match on our last day
The letters wrote,
They within me choked
They didn’t mean that much
Wake up, Wake up
Wake me from my dreams
Maureen:
Make up, Make up
Say you’ll be with me
Terry:
You dug your heel in my bleeding heart,
By in my head you ripped our love apart
Unfaithfully sat,
In a cab
He had you from the start
You said:
“Babe I want you more,
Forget that kid with a police record
He’s long gone,
Let’s have fun”
The story goes on and on
Maureen:
I want you more and more each day,
I can’t believe you pushed me away
You tore my heart,
My notes apart
I’m drowning in my stars
Terry, my love, if I had one wish
I wish you could please grant me this
One last dance,
Before in time we pass
Save a dance for us
Wake up, Wake up
Wake me from my dreams
Make up, Make up
Say you’ll be with me
Make up, Make up
Say you’ll be with me
Make up, Make up
Save a dance for me
