Lyrics Days of the Waltz - Patti Page

On the first time, we went waltzing
We were young and you gave me your hand
On the first time, we went waltzing
The time we spent waltzing was grand

And the candles were all burning
And the chandeliers glittered and shone
On the first time, we went waltzing
We were young and no longer alone

We had all the time
We had all the time
And we had all the time to take our pleasure
Love is made for leisure
Time will tell the measured time
And as we twirl around
And as we twirl around

Time was all around and now the time has found us,
Time has wound its silken web around and bound us
Tied in everywhere
Time is everywhere
Time is everywhere in every looking glass
In every space, we pass
And here I see appear the sudden face of time
The sudden pace of time
The sudden face of time is everywhere
And time is in the air
And time is here and there
And time is everywhere we turn
Everywhere we turn
Everywhere we turn
And every candle's burning
I can see and love is learning
Never put your faith and trust in time
Never trust in time
Never trust in time will play you false
And then one day it halts the tempo of the waltz

On the last time, we went waltzing
When the end of the waltz was at hand
On the last time, we went waltzing
All I heard was the blare of the band

And the candles flickered lightly
And the chandeliers' flicker was wan
On the last time, we went waltzing
Then the days of the waltzes have gone

There is no more time
There is no more time
And there is no more time to take our pleasure
Love is made for leisure
Time will tell the measured time

And as we twirl around
And as we twirl around
Time was all around and now the time has found us
Time has wound its silken web around and bound us
Tied in everywhere

Time is everywhere
Time is everywhere in every looking glass
In every space, we pass
And here I see appear the sudden face of time
The sudden pace of time
The sudden face of time is everywhere

And time is in the air
And time is here and there
And time is everywhere we turn
Everywhere we turn
Everywhere we turn

And every candle's burning
I can see and love is learning
Never put your faith and trust in time
Never trust in time
Never trust in time will play you false
And then one day it halts the tempo of the waltz
La la la la
