He watches her twirl, he watches her glide
She’s stealing the evening
So pretty tonight
Oh what a pity, when she walked through the door
She was holding his hand
But no more

Dance with the one who brought you
Stop giving eyes to all of the others
Maybe you’ll see that he’s got everything and more that you need
So, dance with the one who brought you

She’s so afraid that she’ll miss something good
And later in life have regret for what could have been
She can’t shake the thought from her head
that there might be someone picture perfect
what if you’re missing him, darlin’

Dance with the one who brought you
Stop giving eyes to all of the others
Maybe you’ll see that he’s got everything and more that you need
So, dance with the one who brought you

Maybe when he drops her off and he kisses her cheek
She’ll look back into his eyes and be able to see
That he’ll love her tomorrow
When she’s not wearing makeup
And the day after that when her hair is a mess
Cause it’s not about dresses or dances
It’s about being true

So dance with the one who loves you
Give him your heart and love him too
Forget the cares and concerns of a heart that’s still unsure
Dance with the one who loves you
