THE HESITATION WALTZ (FEMALE VERSION) Music & Lyrics by HARRY LEWIS
Across the crowded dance floor Stands a cowboy—blue eyes and blond hair. Love at first sight, I’ve wanted all night To ask him to dance, but I just stand and stare.
I promise myself that I’ll ask him As soon as the music halts… Too late, another miss Blew Tex a kiss, Now I’m dancin’ THE HESITATION WALTZ!
And the music plays on and on and on, It’s the kinda’ tune that coulda’ been our song. But I’m still standin’ here With this lukewarm beer Watchin’ Mr. All Right dance with Mrs. All Wrong!
As they one-two-three, one-two-three past me, I one, two, three count all my faults. And the total I get Comes to one word: Regret. Now I’m dancin’ THE HESITATION WALTZ!
And they waltz out the door and he’s gone for good. Guess the night’s over, no second chance. I’ll go home to bed And read my cat Fred A chapter ‘r two from a dimestore romance.
You can bet the next time I see a cowboy Who makes my heart do somersaults, I’ll smile and play the game And make ev’ry other dame Dance THE HESITATION WALTZ!
