I heard Rex Allen (I think) do this song on Sirius today. I have searched all over google, but I cannot find the lyrics. Can anyone help?

Written by the Arizona Cowboy himself when he was 14 years old and it was featyred in his first movie

Arizona Waltz

Hold me closer in your arms
And dance the Arizona Waltz
While the songbirds sing a sweet melody
Hold me closer in your arm
And dance the Arizona Waltz
I'm in heaven when you dance with me

And when the lights are low
I'll steal a kiss
Just like I always do
Hold me closer in your arms
And dance the Arizona Waltz
I'm in heaven when I waltz with you

Here are a couple of links to the tune
played on YouTube:

Andy Garrett
played on electric guitar - very nice.

Played on fiddle by Jim Bright a little rough, but also good.

Now we have both words and tune.

Cheers, S. in Seattle

I found a sound sample at Allmusic.com, and what I heard was a bit different:

...Songbirds fill a night with melody.
Let me hold you to my heart and dance the Arizona waltz.
It's the dreamy waltz you've always saved for me.

And when the lights are low, I'll steal a kiss,
Just...
