作曲：Mary Chapin Carpenter

Out on the floor the couples are swing

To one Faded Love on the jukebox tonight

You slide in your coins

And the music keeps playing

A slow country dance

On a Saturday night

Sweethearts in love and others just lonely

Searching for someone to waltz with tonight

In a smoky old bar you know that its only

A slow country dance

On a Saturday night

And loves never easy or ever as true

When the changing of partners

Is no longer new

You lead with your heart and closing your eyes

Dance just to dance

In three quarter time

Down at the bar a woman tells stories

Batting her eyes to someone not there

Her class is half full or maybe half empty

Like the jokes told about her

When they think she cant hear

And now the perfume is cheap and the make-up is careless

And the dress out of fashion for a woman her age

But she dont give a damn for those who would cherish

A much lighter step and a much younger face

And loves never easy or ever as true

When the changing of partners

Is no longer new

You lead with your heart and closing your eyes

Dance just to dance

In three quarter time

Out on the floor the couples are swing

To one Faded Love on the jukebox tonight
