They've called the last dance of the evenin'.
It's the one dance that we call our own.
Most of the others are leavin' and headin' on home
To cryin' goodbye of the fiddles.
The sweetest of love songs must end,
So I'll dance this one with you, just like I first met you.
We'll never be this young again.
We'll never be this young again.
Never be this young again.
Why sit and dream about what might have been?
Yesterday's promise has died on the wind,
So hold me tonight like you held me back then.
We'll never be this young again.
This is the same song we dance to
Back when all our tomorrows were bright.
Now darlin', we have the chance to relive 'em tonight.
Why talk of the years that we've wasted
Or places that we've never been?
Just dance this one with me like you first met me.
We'll never be this young again.
We'll never be this young again
Never be this young again.
Why sit and dream about what might have been?
If we could do it over, we'd do it again,
And I love you tonight like I loved you back then.
We'll never be this young again.
