I was walkin' real fast, I was too scared to run
  past this lonesome graveyard where the highway meets the sun
  well that old graveyard's been around since the civil war
  I had a feelin' that I'd been here before
    I heard a voice, it was talkin' real slow
  she said it's time to make a choice, is it yes or is it no
  I said ok, do what you wanna do
  then she took me to a world I never knew
    where we danced so close, we were teenage ghosts
  we were doin' that graveyard waltz
  after all is said and done we were just too young
  to be doin' that graveyard waltz
    next thing I knew the first dance was done
  but this magic carpet ride had just begun
  heaven only knows where she learned to drive
  between the tombstones and the ones still left alive
    and then that old soul band began to play
  in triple time, she was begging me to stay
  and when the masquerade had started up again
  she said this is the night that never ends
    where we danced so close...
    I was walkin' real fast, I was too scared to run
