Nodding my head,
Tapping my toe
I hold out a spot on the wallflower wall
I learned to waltz such a long time ago
Teach me to waltz
Sometimes I'm shy, sometimes I'm slow
I fall out a step, I step on your toes
I'm wanting to waltz more than you know
Teach me to waltz
Teach me to walk on air
You know I'm halfway there
Dance with me if you dare
Teach me to waltz
Teach me to waltz real slow
Teach me to just let go
Teach me the things you know
Teach me to waltz
When I am gray and eighty-two
Regretting the things I never did do
I'll be able to say I went dancing with you
Teach me to waltz
Teach me to walk on air
You know I'm halfway there
Dance with me if you dare
Teach me to waltz
Teach me to waltz real slow
Teach me to just let go
Teach me the things you know
Teach me to waltz
Put down your fiddle, put down your bow
I am still here on the wallflower wall
We'll make it sweet, we'll make it slow
Teach me to waltz
Teach me to walk on air
You know I'm halfway there
Dance with me if you dare
Teach me to waltz
Teach me to waltz real slow
Teach me to just let go
Teach me the things you know
Teach me to waltz x 3
