The Last Waltz
Engelbert Humperdinck Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The band had only one more song to play
And then I saw you out the corner of my eye
A little girl, alone and so shy
I had the last waltz with you
Two lonely people together
I fell in love with youThe last waltz should last forever
But the love we had was going strong
Through the good and bad, we get along
And then the flame of love died in your eye
My heart was broke in two when you said goodbye
I had the last waltz with you
Two lonely people together
I fell in love with you
The last waltz should last forever
It's all over now, nothing left to say
Just my tears and the orchestra playing
I had the last waltz with you
Two lonely people together
I fell in love with you
The last waltz should last forever
The Last Waltz by Engelbert Humperdinck is a classic love ballad. The song describes a moment when the singer is faced with a decision to leave or stay at a dance. He spots a shy girl in the crowd, and they end up dancing together. As they dance, they fall in love, and the singer wishes the dance would last forever. The song takes a sad turn when the girl ends their relationship, and the singer is left to mourn their love.
The lyrics are deeply emotional and nostalgic. The last waltz symbolizes the end of a relationship, and the singer is left with nothing but memories of the past. The tone of the song is sorrowful, as the singer laments their lost love. However, the song captures the beauty of falling in love, even if the relationship doesn't last.
Line by Line Meaning
I wondered should I go or should I stay,
I was uncertain if I should leave or remain here.
The band had only one more song to play.
The musical group was performing their final piece.
And then I saw you out the corner of my eye,
I noticed you standing nearby but not upfront.
A little girl, alone and so shy.
You appeared timid and isolated, like a kid.
I had the last waltz with you,
We shared a final dance together.
Two lonely people together.
We both felt isolated despite being together.
I fell in love with you,
I fell deeply and quickly in love with you during the dance.
The last waltz should last forever.
I wished that the dance could last eternally.
But the love we had was going strong,
Our affection for each other was enduring.
Through the good and bad we get along.
We had harmony despite both favorable and unfavorable experiences.
And then the flame of love died in your eye,
You lost interest and love for me.
My heart was broke in two when you said goodbye.
I felt immense emotional pain when you left me.
It's all over now, nothing left to say,
Our connection is finished, and there's no reason to say more.
Just my tears and the orchestra playing.
All that remains are my tears and the background music.
La la la la la la la la la,
Syllables in place of words to evoke emotions or to fit the melody.
La la la la la la la la la.
Syllables in place of words to evoke emotions or to fit the melody.
I had the last waltz with you,
We shared a final dance together.
Two lonely people together.
We both felt isolated despite being together.
I fell in love with you,
I fell deeply and quickly in love with you during the dance.
The last waltz should last forever.
I wished that the dance could last eternally.
La la la la la la la la la.
Syllables in place of words to evoke emotions or to fit the melody.

La dernière valse devrait durer pour toujours.
Mais notre amour était fort,
À travers les bons et les mauvais moments, nous nous entendions.
Puis la flamme de l'amour s'est éteinte dans ton regard,
Mon cœur s'est brisé en deux quand tu as dit au revoir.
J'ai eu la dernière valse avec toi,
Deux personnes seules ensemble.
Je suis tombé amoureux de toi,
La dernière valse devrait durer pour toujours.
Maintenant tout est fini, plus rien à dire,
Juste mes larmes et l'orchestre qui joue.
La la la la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la la la.
J'ai eu la dernière valse avec toi,
Deux personnes seules ensemble.
Je suis tombé amoureux de toi,
La dernière valse devrait durer pour toujours.
La la la la la la la la la.

In December 1977, my then-girlfriend introduced me to the world of the songs of this immense singer without equal. She and I got married in October 1980, and since then we have been together, having the fortune of have seen Engelbert sing live in two occasions. What a personality of singer! My beloved wife and I still enjoy listening to these beautiful songs.
