As the world goes past me I have enough to last me As long as you come to call And hang your coat and hat on the hook in the hall This is the step we'll learn tonight Turn on a dime and stay upright Come back slowly in your own time I'll wait for you And as the world goes past me I have enough to last me As long as we dance like this What a man's never had he will never miss This is the way the step looks best Keep it neat as you come to rest And if my heart seems to skip a beat Just wait for me Just wait for me the way I wait for you For all the endless hours in a week This is the silent language lovers speak When they mean nothing except what's true Just wait for me the way I wait for you To change your shoes before we say goodbye This the world where I will never die Or lie awake for what I'm going through And as the world goes past me I have enough to last me As long as we dance like that There's a hook in the hall And it's waiting for your coat and hat
