If love was a melody, I'd want you to sing to me in that voice that whispers my name If the world was a dance floor, I'd want you shore to shore while the steel and twin fiddles play A love song that goes on forever, for worse and for better We'll two-step together, and I'll hold you closer each day I go through this dance of a lifetime with you Till right now, as once was, memories and salt dust, tomorrows have all rolled around We'll ask the good Lord if heaven has an encore and I pray that we'll hear that sound A love song that goes on forever, for worse and for better We'll two-step together, and I'll hold you closer each day I go through this dance of a lifetime with you I'll hold you closer each day I go through this dance of a lifetime with your hand in mine Dance of a lifetime with you
