Lyrics:

The swirling of dresses
The scuffing of shoes--
'Should my hair be in tresses?'
'What tie do I choose?'--
As the hall fills with dancers
And the strings start to sound--
We will take that first step
And we won't touch the ground--
For there's only the music
That plays on and on--
Yes, there's only the music
The heartaches are gone--
We can stand close together
While the world dances by--
'Cause there's only the music
Between you and I--
Yes, there's only the music
Between you and I
A head on a shoulder
An arm 'round a waist
If the weather gets colder
We both will be braced--
For whatever the trouble
We still have a chance--
If we hold hands together
And take time to dance--

The clock hours bending
The hands spinning 'round--
From beginning to ending
As dancers we're bound--
With the memories like treasures
All safe in their vaults--
When we hear the last measures
We'll dance the grand waltz--
For there's only the music
That plays on and on--
Yes, there's only the music
The heartaches are gone--
We can stand close together
While the world dances by--
'Cause there's only the music
Between you and I--
Yes, there's only the music
Between you and I
For there's only the music
That plays on and on--
Yes, there's only the music
The heartaches are gone--
We can stand close together
While the world dances by--
'Cause there's only the music
Between you and I--
Yes, there's only the music
Between you and I
