Margaret’s Waltz
Connie Kaldor © SOCAN
From the album Wood River
Backmp3LyricsSheet

I'm not the kind to sit and pine
For places far away
Every town I travel to
Has its charm and its delight
But something about the moon tonight
Sent a longing to my soul
To be at a dance with the one I love
On a warm prairie night

And I can hear that Margaret’s waltz
That fiddle play so sweet
And I can feel the spring of the hardwood floor
Beneath my feet
I close my eyes and I see the lights of town
Twinkling at night
They say that home is where the heart is
And I guess they're right

So please forgive me but tonight
My thoughts are far away
To the place my memory will go
If I give it half a chance
I smell the sage upon the air and I'm walking arm and arm
With the one I love towards the sound
Of an old time country dance

Chorus

Copywrite Connie Kaldor, Coyote Entertainement Quebec Canada
