| Beside the braes of dawn
 | 
| One clear new morning
 | 
| Down where the lilies stood in bloom
 | 
| I knew that I was just a stranger in this world
 | 
| A wind just passing through
 | 
| So we dared to stay
 | 
| In these golden ways
 | 
| We never never knew what to do
 | 
| And the world kept coming screaming
 | 
| All it’s news at me
 | 
| Well, now I’ve got news for you
 | 
| So let me take you down to the dancing floor
 | 
| You can walk out on the crowd
 | 
| Let us waltz away what’s left of the living years
 | 
| In celebration of the loved
 | 
| No nothing’s all that it seems
 | 
| In the strands and the waves
 | 
| Our steps renewed our lips confess
 | 
| We were stranded at the alter of unknown delights
 | 
| Down on the road to happiness
 | 
| And as the sunlight fills
 | 
| The highland hills
 | 
| It’s all become so clear somehow
 | 
| That the days we spend
 | 
| Were not made to end
 | 
| We stand forever in thier glow
 | 
| So let me take you down to the dancing floor
 | 
| You can walk out on the crowd
 | 
| Let us waltz away what’s left of the living years
 | 
| In celebration of the loved
 | 
| It’s all glitz and sparkle down on the dancing floor
 | 
| We can turn our lives around
 | 
| Just leave behind that wretch that you have been
 | 
| With the fool that I’d become
 | 
| Now the hours are few
 | 
| And the days can be so cruel (so cruel)
 | 
| Yes, the night are getting long (the nights are getting long)
 | 
| And that joy that you would always bring
 | 
| It’ll always keep me strong
 | 
| So let me take you down to the dancing floor
 | 
| You can walk out on the crowd
 | 
| Let us waltz away what’s left of the living years
 | 
| In celebration of the loved
 | 
| It’s all glitz and sparkle tonight on the dancing floor
 | 
| We can turn our lives around
 | 
| Just leave behind that wretch that you have been
 | 
| With the fool that I’d become |
