Oh my you have a handsome face you favour a man that I know I imagine that he's still in Tennessee I know I should be there too I've a sadness too sad to be true But I left Tennessee in a hurry dear the same way that I'm leaving you Cause love is mainly just memories and everyone's got them a few So when I leave I'll be glad to love you At the brand new Tennessee waltz you're lit really waltzing on air At the brand new Tennessee waltz there's no telling who will be there When I leave it'll be like I found you love descending Victorian stairs
I'm feeling like one of your photographs I trapped while I'm putting on airs And getting even by asking who cares At the brand new Tennessee waltz... So have all your pa**ionate violins play a tune for a Tennessee Kid Who's feeling like leaving another town with no place to go if she did Cause they'll catch you wherever you're hid At the brand new Tennessee waltz... At the brand new Tennessee waltz... There's no telling who will be there
