The New Covid Waltz

The New Covid Waltz I'm dancing with my darling To the New Covid Waltz She looked up and she said to me "I can barely see you" "You're so far away" For now, that the way it must be I remember the time That we danced until morning Watching the night turn to day Now, when we're dancing I can't even touch you You have to stay six feet away I'm dancing with my darling To the New Covid Waltz She looked up and she said to me "I can barely see you" "You're so far away" For now, that the way it must be I remember when we Would dance in the moonlight Cutting a path 'cross the floor Now with N ninety five masks And gloves to your elbow We cannot do that anymore I'm dancing with my darling To the New Covid Waltz She looked up and she said to me "I can barely see you" "You're so far away" For now, that the way it must be So, remember this Keep your distance while dancing Doing whatever you please Don't get too close though Please keep your distance In case one of you happens to sneeze
