 also wrote the song to which this is an "answer":

 "Save the Last Dance For Me" (Drifters)

 

 If I dance ev'ry dance with the guys who give me the eye

 And let 'em hold me tight

 Please don't mind, if I smile at the man who holds my hand

 'neath the pale moonlight

 I won't forget who's takin' me home and you should remember, too

 That I'm savin' the last dance for you

 

 Mm I know (oh I know) that the music's (yes I know) fine

 Like sparklin' (oh I know) wine but my mind's (yes I know) on you (oh I
know)

 I can tell (yes I know) by the way (oh I know) you look (yes I know) at me

 That you're thinking, too (oh I know) (yes I know)

 I won't forget that you're taking me home when the night is through

 So I'm savin' the last dance for you

 

 Baby, don'tcha know I love you so?

 Can'tcha feel it when we touch?

 I will never, ever let you go

 I love you oh so much

 

 It's my dance (you can dance) and I'll carry (you can dance)on

 Until the night (you can dance) is gone and it's just for fun (you can dance)
(you

 can dance)

 And you know (you can dance) when it's time (you can dance) to go

 You'll be (you can dance) the one to take (you can dance) me home (you can

 dance)

 Don't want to give my goodnight kiss to anyone but you

 So I'm savin' the last dance for you

 

 Don't want to give my goodnight kiss to anyone but you

 So I'm savin' the last dance for you

 

 Hmm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm

 Savin' the last dance for you
