Chorus:
It's three o'clock in the morning,
We've danced the whole night thru,

And daylight soon will be dawning,
Just one more waltz with you,

That melody so entrancing,
Seems to be made for us two,
I could just keep right on dancing forever
Dear with you.

 

Chimes:
(Chimes)
There goes the three o'clock chime,
Chiming,   rhyming,
My heart keeps beating in time,
(Chimes)
Sounds like an old sweet love tune,
Say that there soon will be a
Honey moon.
