Irish Waltz

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
We danced an Irish waltz
