Dancing Master
As the world goes past me
I have enough to last me
As long as you come to call
And hang your coat and hat on the hook in the hall
This is the step we’ll learn tonight
Turn on a dime and stay upright
Come back slowly in your own time
I’ll wait for you
As the world goes past me
I have enough to last me
As long as we dance like this
And what a man’s never had he will never miss
This is the way the step looks best
Keep it neat as you come to rest
And if my heart seems to skip a beat
Just wait for me
Just wait for me the way I wait for you
For all the endless hours in a week
This is the silent language lovers speak
When they mean nothing except what’s true
Just wait for me the way I wait for you
To change your shoes before we say goodbye
This is the world where I will never die
Or lie awake for what I’m going through
As the world goes past me
I have enough to last me
As long as we dance like that
There’s a hook in the hall and it’s waiting for your coat and hat
I have enough to last me
As long as you come to call
And hang your coat and hat on the hook in the hall
This is the step we’ll learn tonight
Turn on a dime and stay upright
Come back slowly in your own time
I’ll wait for you
As the world goes past me
I have enough to last me
As long as we dance like this
And what a man’s never had he will never miss
This is the way the step looks best
Keep it neat as you come to rest
And if my heart seems to skip a beat
Just wait for me
Just wait for me the way I wait for you
For all the endless hours in a week
This is the silent language lovers speak
When they mean nothing except what’s true
Just wait for me the way I wait for you
To change your shoes before we say goodbye
This is the world where I will never die
Or lie awake for what I’m going through
As the world goes past me
I have enough to last me
As long as we dance like that
There’s a hook in the hall and it’s waiting for your coat and hat
