Lyric Brand New Tennessee Waltz

(Jesse Winchester)

Oh, my you have a handsome face
You favour a man that I know
I imagine that he s still in Tennessee
I know I should be there too
I ve a sadness too sad to be true

But I left Tennessee in a hurry dear
The same way that I m leaving you.
Cause love is mainly just memories
And everyone s got them a few.
So when I leave I ll be glad to love you
At the brand new Tennessee waltz
You re light really waltzing on air.

At the brand new Tennessee waltz
There s no telling who will be there
When I leave it ll be like I found you
Love descending Victorian stairs.

I m feeling like one of your photographs
I trapped while I m putting on airs
And getting even by asking who cares
At the brand new Tennessee waltz
There s no telling who will be there
When I leave it ll be like I found you
Love descending Victorian stairs.

So have all your passionate violins play
A tune for a Tennessee kid
Who s feeling like leaving another town
With no place to go if she did.
Cause they ll catch you wherever you re hid

At the brand new Tennessee waltz
There s no telling who will be there
When I leave it ll be like I found you
Love descending Victorian stairs.

At the brand new Tennessee waltz
At the brand new Tennessee waltz
There s no telling who will be there
When I leave it ll be like I found you
Love descending Victorian stairs.

There s no telling who will be there...
