MARGARET'S WALTZ
As recorded by Connie Kaldor on "Wood River" (2010)

1. I'm not the kind to sit and pine for places far away.
Every town I travel to has its charms and its delights;
But something about the moon tonight sends a longing to my soul
To be at a dance with the one I love on a warm prairie night.

CHORUS: And I can hear that Margaret's Waltz, that the fiddle plays so sweet,
And I can feel the spring of the hardwood floor beneath my feet.
I close my eyes and I see the lights of town twinkling at night.
They say that home is where your heart is; I guess they're right.

2. So please forgive me but tonight my thoughts are far away
To the place my memory will go if I give it half a chance.
I smell the sage upon the air and I'm walking arm in arm
With the one I love towards the sound of an old-time country dance. CHORUS
