You were a soldier from the way
Waltzing me all the way home
I'd never seen your kind before
Your every word was a poem
Thank you for giving me reasons for living
More reasons than I'd ever known
Thank you for giving me new worlds to live in
And waltzing me all the way home
Now that you're just a memory
Waltzing me all the way home
I hope they treat you tenderly in London, Paris and Rome
You'll find a lover who looks like your mother
For heaven's sake don't be alone
And I'll find a lover who looks like your brother
But never another for waltzing me all the way home
Waltzing me all the way home
