 D
They said this was our last dance
                                           G
The lights went dim as I looked round the floor
 Em         A
Then I saw you standing there
 Em                  A                        D
Then I walked up to you and I asked for this dance

Chorus:
D
The band had started to play
            D7         G
I held you hand and I sighed
                       D
Is this the start of another heart breaker
    A                  G
Or something better beginning
                    D
Something better beginning
 A                  D
Something better beginning

  A#                                  D
I never thought I'd love like this until I met you
  A#                             D
I found something I thought I'd never had
    F                               C
The only time I feel all right is when I'm with you
   A#                      A
I wonder how long it will last

I walked you home in the night
The moon shone bright as we walked hand in hand
I've known this joy once before
But it came to an end just as it had began

Chorus:
Each step that I took with you
Brought one thing closer to my mind
Is this the start of another heart breaker
Or something better beginning
Something better beginning
Something better beginning
