Irish Waltz

Irish Waltz - Charlie Landsborough

I'm slow on my feet and I'm lacking in grace

And no one could ever look more out of place

Than me on a dance floor with egg on my face

Dancing an irish waltz

I looked up and couldn't believe what I saw

The kind of face I'd only dreamed of before

So I swallowed my pride and I took to the floor

As the band played an irish waltz

One two three went my heart

And we smiled as we swayed

And the band sweetly played

My legs felt like lead there were stars in my head

When we danced an irish waltz

I was clumsy and dark foot and so ill at ease

Blood rushed to my head

While the strength left my knees

But the moment that stole on my memories

Is when we danced an irish waltz

One two three went my heart

And we smiled as we swayed

And the band sweetly played

My legs felt like lead there were stars in my head

When we danced an irish waltz

Oh we've been together for years since that night

My two left feet still can't quite get it right

Our children look on and they laugh with delight

When we danced an irish waltz

One two three went my heart

And we smiled as we swayed

And the band sweetly played

My legs felt like lead there were stars in my head

When we danced an irish waltz

One two three went my heart

And we smiled as we swayed

And the band sweetly played

My legs felt like lead there were stars in my head

When we danced an irish waltz

We danced an irish waltz
