Emmylou Harris - Save The Last Dance For Me (1980)

Emmylou Harris with the song 'Save The Last Dance For Me' live at a festival in 1980. Songwriters were Doc Pomus & Mort Shuman.
Other well-known versions of this song would be from the Drifters and more recently, Michael Bublé.
Lyric:
You can dance
Every dance with the girl who gives you the eye
Let her hold you tight
You can smile
Every smile for the girl who'd like to treat you right
'Neath the pale moonlight
But don't forget who's takin' you home
And in who's arms you're gonna be
Oh, darlin' save the last dance for me
Oh I know
That the music's fine like sparklin' wine
Go and have your fun
Dance and sing
But while we're apart don't give your heart to anyone
And don't forget who's takin' you home
And in who's arms you're gonna be
Oh, darlin', save the last dance for me
You can dance
Go and carry on till the night is gone
And it's time to go
If she asks
If you're all alone, can she take you home
You must tell her no
And don't forget who's takin' you home
And in who's arms you're gonna be
Oh, darlin', save the last dance for me
And don't forget who's takin' you home
And in who's arms you're gonna be
Oh, darlin', save the last dance for me

Lyrics:.💃🌹
You can dance every dance with the girl
Who gave you the eye, let her hold you tight
You can smile every smile for the girl
Who'd like to treat you right 'neath the pale moon light
And don't forget who's taking you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
Oh darlin', save the last dance for me
Oh, I know that the music's fine like sparkling wine
Go and have your fun
Dance and sing but while we're apart
Don't give your heart to anyone
And don't forget who's taking you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
Oh darlin', save the last dance for me
You can dance, go and carry on 'til the night is gone
And it's time to go
If she asks, if you're all alone, can she take you home?
You must tell her no
And don't forget who's taking you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
Oh darlin', save the last dance for me
And don't forget who's taking you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
Oh darlin', save the last dance for me

If for some reason ali mcgraw wasnt able to star with ryan oneal in the movie lovestory emmylou harris would be perfect for the role. She has a more angelic face than ali. No offense of course to ali who is a terrific actress and one of the beautiful actresses that graces the silver screen.

[@myrjer]

Emmylou is one of the most beautiful women inside and out I've seen in my life. My favorite female vocalist since the 70's.
