Again and again I want someone to tell me the words to this beautiful scottish song which begins with 'Let's dance again to the old Scottish waltz. Let's deal my kiss...'

Let's dance again
To the old scottish waltz
Let's steal a kiss
While they play that melody
Whisper my name
In the old scottish waltz
And I'll the you that I love you so
For auld lang syne

A violin was playing
A song of long ago
Dancer were gently swaying
While the lights were soft and low
Two old friends of mine were dreaming
T'was their golden wedding day
And as Darby turned to Flo and smiled
I heard him softly say
(repeat the first paragraph)

I am glad I could be of help. I also have lyrics to a song called the "Old Irish Waltz". Would you like those lyrics also?

I had never heard of the song until a few months ago. I typed the word scottish while searching through the sharing files in WinMx. I actually downloaded the song. I will look in those files again and tell you later who sang it.

Greg, I sometimes visit my personal page to check the tracer. I found the answer just by chance.

kfischy:

Yes, Andy Stewart sang this song. He used to sing a lot of Scottish songs with strong Scottish accent mimicking Sir Harry Lauder.

Could you post the lyrics to Old Irish Waltz ?

Regards

I live in Anchorage Alaska and one of our local singers, Robin Hopper, put out a CD and one of the songs is the "Old Irish Waltz". I don't think anybody else put it out. Here are the lyrics.

Now when the country band plays
Old Irish waltz
Won't you dance with me
Tonight ‘neath the stars
And we'll dance on the lawn
While the moon lingers on
When the country band plays
That old Irish waltz

CHORUS: Shall we dance
Dance like the leaves in the wind
Never to come to an end
Shall we dance
Dance for the rest of our lives
For the old Irish waltz never dies

What is this magical song
Why do I feel so free
I’m floating and flying
While you dance with me
We are one we are all
And the song is within
When we dance on the hill
To the old Irish waltz. CHORUS

And when the band it stops playing
The song lingers on
In the mountains and trees
And the wind in your hair
And we'll dance all our lives
Forever tonight
When we dance on the hill
To the old Irish waltz. CHORUS

If you give me your email address. Maybe I can send you a tape or CD with my favorite Scottish and Irish recordings which would include those two songs. Would you like that?

I made a mistake one the part the says "while the moon lingers on". It should be "and the moon will look on".
