Save Me a Slow One

You've been talking to the neighbors
I've been clearing all the plates
We keep crossing in the kitchen
Trading smiles from different days
I can hear the last song starting
Put that dish towel down a while

Save me a slow one
When the chairs go on the floor
Save me a slow one
Like we danced in here before

I was going through the motions
Trying to be a decent host
You're the reason for the evening
You're the one I missed the most
Let the glasses wait till morning
Let me turn the music up

Save me a slow one
When the chairs go on the floor
Save me a slow one
Like we danced in here before

We learned how to run a household
We forgot to make a date
There's nobody left to look after
Let the whole house wait

Save me a slow one
When the chairs go on the floor
Save me a slow one
Like we danced in here before

Save me a slow one
I still know your pace
