Save the Last Dance for Me

Ben E. King

You can dance
Every dance with the guy who gives you the eye
Let him hold you tightYou can smile
Every smile for the man
Who held your hand ′neath the pale moonlight

But don't forget who′s takin' you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darling, save the last dance for me, mmm

Oh, I know that the music′s fine
Like sparkling wine, go and have your fun
Laugh and sing, but while we′re apart
Don't give your heart to anyone

But don′t forget who's takin′ you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darling, save the last dance for me, mmm

Baby, don′t you know I love you so?
Can't you feel it when we touch?
I will never, never let you go
I love you, oh, so much

You can dance (you can dance), go and carry on
'Til the night is gone
And it′s time to go
If he asks if you′re all alone
Can he take you home?
You must tell him no

'Cause don′t forget who's taking you home
And in whose arms you′re gonna be
So darling, save the last dance for me

(Aah-aah)
(Aah-aah)

'Cause don′t forget who's taking you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darling, save the last dance for me, mmm

Save the last dance for me, mm-hmm
Save the last dance for me
