Save the Next Dance for Me
By Abby S. & Maggie S.
{verse one}
I watch them swirl by me
Dancing pairs, two by two
Old married couples and young kids in love
The boys in a row
And the girls, looking shy
Suddenly being by myself isn’t enough
{chorus}
Save the next dance for me
Because I’ve lost my way
I don’t know how to love
My heart’s still in yesterday
Save the next dance for me
‘Cause You’re all that I know
You’re the one thing I’m sure of
Please don’t let me go
{verse two}
Across the room I see
Him with someone else
He dances content, doesn’t see I’m alone
She must be so happy
He holds her so close
Though he never was mine, it still hurts that he’s gone
{chorus}
Save the next dance for me
Because I’ve lost my way
I don’t know how to love
My heart’s still in yesterday
Save the next dance for me
‘Cause You’re all that I know
You’re the one thing I’m sure of
Please don’t let me go
{verse three}
So I pick up the pieces
Of my shattered love
I can’t fix it, instead I just hand them to You
Then someone steps forward
And he takes my hand
And You smile as You say, “I can make all things new.”
{chorus}
Save the next dance for me
Because I’ve lost my way
I don’t know how to love
My heart’s still in yesterday
Save the next dance for me
‘Cause You’re all that I know
You’re the one thing I’m sure of
Please don’t let me go
