A LOVE WALTZ

Now Orion, he talked with a beautiful blond
And the band played on;
The vow from their lips
Was to share their friendships
And the band played on.
He could not forget her
So e-mailed a letter
And that’s how this all began
The friendship they’d vowed
Would soon have it’s head bowed,
And sweet love move in.

We met at the church where we heard God’s great word,
And the band played on.
We dealt with our grief
In our common belief
And the band played on.
Then after the church I asked with a lurch
If she would go for a treat;
She kindly said Yes, and I now must confess
That my heart stood still!

We let this become a brief practice with us
And the band played on.
My courage was building
Her beauty so guilding
The band played on.
I asked for a kiss
Though I knew it remiss;
The poor girl shook with alarm.
I kissed her that night and I felt it alright
And the Band played on.

A few weeks had passed and the time came at last
While the band played on
While we were just talking,
Our hearts went out walking,
The band played on.
My heart seemed to say
This was the right day
To ask her to be my wife
She said she would do it
When she could get to it
And that time has come here tonight!

Now Orion will waltz with this beautiful blonde
While the band plays on.
He’ll love her; she’ll love him
None other above them
The band plays on.
They’ll counsel and cuddle,
And often will huddle
To work out the things they’re to do,
As husband and wife, they will build a great life
On this love that God made so true.
