Only the Music Lyrics

The swirling of dresses,
The scuffing of shoes--
"Should my hair be in tresses?"
"What tie do I choose?"--
As the hall fills with dancers,
And the strings start to sound--
We will take that first step,
And we won't touch the ground--

For there's only the music,
That plays on and on--
Yes, there's only the music,
The heartaches are gone--
We can stand close together,
While the world dances by--
"Cause there's only the music,
Between you and I--
Yes, there's only the music,
Between you and I

A head on a shoulder,
An arm 'round a waist,
If the weather gets colder,
We both will be braced--
For whatever the trouble,
We still have a chance--
If we hold hands together,
And take time to dance--

The clock hours bending,
The hands spinning 'round--
From beginning to ending,
As dancers we're bound--
With the memories like treasures,
All safe in their vaults--
When we hear the last measures,
We'll dance the grand waltz--

For there's only the music,
That plays on and on--
Yes, there's only the music,
The heartaches are gone--
We can stand close together,
While the world dances by--
"Cause there's only the music,
Between you and I--
Yes, there's only the music,
Between you and I

For there's only the music,
That plays on and on--
Yes, there's only the music,
The heartaches are gone--
We can stand close together,
While the world dances by--
"Cause there's only the music,
Between you and I--
Yes, there's only the music,
Between you and I
