Graveyard Waltz Lyrics - Singles - Hooters

I was walkin' real fast, I was too scared to run 

Past this lonesome graveyard where the highway meets the sun 

Well, that old graveyard's been around since the civil war 

I had a funny feelin' that I'd been here before 

I heard a voice, it was talkin' real slow 

She said, "It's time to make a choice, is it yes or is it no?" 

I said, "Okay, do what you wanna do" 

Then she took me to a world, a world I never knew 

Where we danced so close, we were teenage ghosts 

We were doin' that graveyard waltz 

After all is said and done, we were just too young 

To be doin' that graveyard waltz, graveyard waltz 

Next thing I knew the first dance was done 

But this magic carpet ride had just begun 

And Heaven only knows where she learned to drive 

Right between the tombstones and the ones still left alive 

And then that old soul band began to play 

In triple time, she was begging me to stay 

And when the masquerade had started up again 

She said this is the night, the night that never ends 

Where we danced so close, we were teenage ghosts 

We were doin' that graveyard waltz 

After all is said and done, we were just too young 

To be doin' that graveyard waltz, graveyard waltz 

Doin' that graveyard waltz 

Where we danced so close, we were teenage ghosts 

We were doin' that graveyard waltz 

After all is said and done, we were just too young 

To be doin' that graveyard waltz, graveyard waltz 

Where we danced so close, we were teenage ghosts 

We were doin' that graveyard waltz 

After all is said and done, we were just too young 

To be doin' that graveyard waltz, graveyard waltz 

Doin' that graveyard waltz 

Doin' that graveyard waltz 

We were just too young 

To be doin' that graveyard waltz, graveyard waltz 

I was walkin' real fast, I was too scared to run
