Busman's Holiday - The Last Waltz Lyrics

The Last Waltz

I went to Alaska to ask her.
I'd hoped we'd elope.

You and I did say some day
We'd marry 'cause of our love.
The last waltz
The last love
Love the last

Turnpikes collide to make a memory
Often I see her in my dreams
Misery is my company
With periodic strangers in between.

You and I did say some day
We'd marry 'cause of our love.
The last waltz
The last love
Love the last

I called from a Kansas telephone.
Her mother told me she was not at home.
Call her a doe, a dear, I did.
Her mother told me that's not what she said.

You talked of traveling to Hono Lulu;
Travel the whole world in a hot air balloon.
We spent our time on a train but you had to go.
Now I have boarded a train en route to Juneau.

I was sure I would not make it here
Never to see you once again, my dear.
Carolina, I'll give you a choice.
My actions pale in comparison to my voice.

You and I did say some day
We'd marry 'cause of our love.
The last waltz
The last love
Love the last
