I met him on the open road
At the edge of dusk in the western cold
His collar was up and his hat was low
When I saw him standin' in the fog
I knew I had to stop
We drove in silence for a while
He turned to me and said
"I like your style"
"You ever two-step?" "I do not"
"Well
Do you mind if I show you how to waltz?"
When the song comes on
I'll grab your hand
The cold moonlight and the starry dance
We glide like two ghosts
We laugh and spin
I was dancin' with the man in black again
I asked him
"Do you need a ride?"
He said
"No
I think I'm doin' fine"
And I said
"I should be headin' home"
He said
"But it's too early
Don't you go"
And he asked me
"Do you two-step?"
I said
"I don't"
He said
"Well
Do you mind if I show you how to waltz?"
When the song comes on
I'll grab your hand
The cold moonlight and the starry dance
We glide like two ghosts
We laugh and spin
I was dancin' with the man in black again
It was only then I recognized
The great big smile
The brilliant eyes
And I said
"You're not him
" he said
"You're right
I'm a devil with an angel's mind"
And I said
"You're not him
" he said
"You're right
I'm a devil with an angel's mind"
