One Last Waltz

One Last Waltz

 

One last waltz down King Street
One last twirl with you
One last stutter down the cobblestone
Before our little song is through

One last waltz down King Street
One last left hand in your right
One last stutter down the promenade
Before I said goodbye, and you said one last goodnight

I recall snow angel-ing with you beneath Orion and his winter solstice eye
Springtime springing eternal, or so it seemed
You by my right side
A whole summer on the Ashley burning forever-freckles on my soul
Then the fall
Came the fall
Came the fall
I'm still falling for you

After one last waltz down King Street

One last waltz down King Street
One last twirl with you
One last stutter down the cobblestone
One last kiss or two

We did it all lest we ever say we never lay in sweetgrass fields together
We did it all lest we ever say we never play among our stars for just a little chance at forever
We did it all lest we ever say we never catapult ourselves from twilight's edge
Just to touch the trembling tip of the finger of a new yonder Wild Blue Yonder dawn
I'm still falling for you

After one last waltz down King Street

I looked back at you looking back at me looking back at you
I looked back at you looking back at me looking back at you
Did you catch me looking back at you looking back at me
Looking back at you in your rearview of your VW

After one last waltz down King Street
