[Verse]
E
You can dance
 
Every dance with the guy
 
Who gave you the eye

Let him hold you tight
 
You can smile
 
Every smile for the man
 
Who held your hand
E
'Neath the pale moonlight
 
[Chorus]
A
But dont forget who's taking you home
E
And in whose arms you're gonna be

Oh darling,
E
Save the last dance for me

Yes I know,
 
That the music's fine
 
Like sparkling wine
B7
Go on and have fun
 
Laugh and sing
 
But while we're apart
E
Don't give your heart to anyone

And don't forget who's taking you home

And in whose arms you're gonna be

Save the last dance for me

Can't you feel it when we touch

E
You can dance
 
Go on carry on
 
Till the night is gone
B7
And it's time to go
 
And if he asks
 
If you're all alone
 
Can he take you home?
E
You must tell him no

Cause don't forget who's taking you home

And in whose arms you're gonna be
