bill morrissey - broken waltz time lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
you can sing anything that you like
the evening is so far from through
and i’ve been learning this old labor tune
while we all waited for you

[verse 2]
the new fiddler, he comes from montreal
he won’t talk ’cause he only speaks french
and before you sit down let me take his drink
off of your piano bench

[verse 3]
everyone’s tuned up and ready to play
there’s no one that you’ve still got to meet
so you count it off, ’cause we love the way
no one here can follow that beat

[chorus]
will you still meet me tonight
out by the highway sign?
or will you just play your regrets once again
in that crazy broken waltz time?

[verse 4]
your hair, it swirls like a fire in the snow
your hands dance over the keys
and i can hear the soft voice of that piano
saying, “yes baby, yes baby, please”
[verse 5]
your eyes follow mine as i play my guitar
i find myself lost for a rhyme
to remember the way we made love that day
in nearly three+quarter time

[chorus]
will you still meet me tonight
out by the highway sign?
or will you just play your regrets once again
in that crazy broken waltz time?

[verse 6]
the fiddler watches you wondering when
you’re gonna slow down or speed up
finally, he just shuts his eyes again
he turns around once and gives up

[verse 7]
ah, but me, i’ve been coming here for much too long
to fall out the first time it don’t work
it may take awhile to catch up with your style
so you just give the rhythm a jerk

[verse 8]
because you and i, we’ve been playing for years
don’t you ever wonder why that is?
and even the fiddler, he understands
so watch out, the next chorus is his
[chorus]
will you still meet me tonight
out by the highway sign?
or will you just play your regrets once again
in that crazy broken waltz time?
