Old Fashioned Waltz

Bill Soden

Gliding through life, sleek as a sailboat
Rough seas would magically part
She was always real nice when around me
But no room for me in her heart
A boyhood crush, I stared as she passed by
I was completely enthralled

She was the girl who sailed through the world
With the grace of an old fashioned waltz
She was the girl who sailed through the world
With the grace of an old fashioned waltz

She went to the best schools, all the debutante balls
Parties in her endless back yard
I cut the hedges and lawn for her parents
I worshipped her from afar
Still I have nothing but good memories of her
I became a man after all
