Four ladies chain across you go
You chain them right back home you know
Join hands and circle left in a ring
Left allemande and weave the ring
Into time passages
Swing your partner and all promenade
Years go falling in the fading light
Buy me a ticket on the last train home tonight

Heads (sides) promenade halfway around
Sides (heads) do a right & left thru
Square thru it's four hands you go
All the way do an eight chain 4
Into these time passages
Swing your corner and all promenade
Buy me a ticket on the last train home tonight

Sides face grand square
Hear the echoes and feel yourself starting to turn
Don't know why you feel that there's something to learn
Circle left
It's just a name that you play
Left allemande and promenade
Buy me a ticket on the last train home tonight

Sides face grand square
Well the picture is changing, you're part of a crowd
They're laughing at something and the music's loud
A girl comes towards you, you once used to know
You reach out your hand
Allemande left and you weave
Into these time passages
I know you're in there you're just out of sight
Swing and promenade the ring
Buy me a ticket on the last train home tonight
