Dance and Sway

I tune the fiddle, and I drag the fiddle bow
And I catch you dancing, over by the back window
And you've always loved it, every time I play
And I've done it all these years, just to watch you dance and sway

Dance and sway
Dance and sway
Dance and sway
Dance and sway

Your hair is silver, and my body's tired
You're so familiar, but I'm still inspired
And we barely made it, through troubling matters
Maybe we cracked a bit, but we never shattered

We never shattered
We never shattered
We never shattered
We never shattered

And the days got lonely, the nights grew cold
I buried my dream, and we got wrinkled
And my strings went rusty, and your bones got sore
But when I drag the fiddle bow, it stirs you still
And you shuffle across the floor

We prayed for paradise well, that fell through
But I'm an old man with a crooked grin still fiddling slow and watching you

Watching you
Watching you
Watching you
Watching you

I tune the fiddle, and I drag the fiddle bow
And I catch you dancing, over by the back window
And you've always loved it, every time I play
And I've done it all these years, just to watch you dance and sway

Dance and sway
Dance and sway
Dance and sway
Dance and sway
