Play Me the Waltz of the Angels

Play Me the Waltz of the Angels
Owen Mac Lyrics

So I said, Sir, can I play something for you
Something special that you'd like to hear?
When he looked up at me he was smiling

He said, "Play me the waltz of the angels,
And I'll close my eyes and pretend.
Play me the waltz of the angels,
So I can dance with my angel again. "

He said, "Yes, that's the song I remember
That's the one that she loved the best
It was playing the night that I met her
And it was playing when we laid her to rest"

"Play me the waltz of the angels,
And I'll close my eyes and pretend
Play me the waltz of the angels,
So I can dance with my angel again"
"Let me dance with my angel again"

"Play me the waltz of the angels,
And I'll close my eyes and pretend
Play me the waltz of the angels,

So I can dance with my angel again"
"Let me dance with my angel again"

Owen Mac's song "Play Me the Waltz of the Angels" tells a touching story of an old man who asks the singer to perform a specific song for him. The lyrics paint a picture of a party playing to an audience, including some elderly guests. However, one individual stands out, sitting alone and as if they would rather not be there. The singer approaches them and asks if they have a special request, and the old man asks for the waltz of the angels, explaining that it was the song his beloved wife loved the most. He wants to close his eyes and dance with her again, through the memories and the music.

The lyrics of the song are clear and emotive, and it is heartwarming to see an old man allow himself to remember his loved one and relive the moments when they danced together, through just a song. The simplicity of the music brings out the emotions of the lyrics even more, making it relatable to anyone who has ever lost someone they loved.

I played a party last night for some old folks
Owen Mac performed at a party for elderly people

They were dancing and smiling at me
The audience enjoyed Owen's music at the party

'Cept this old man alone at a table
However, there was one elderly man sitting alone

As if there's someplace that he'd rather be.
He seemed to be lost in thought and not fully present at the party

So I said, Sir, can I play something for you
Owen approached the old man and offered to play a song for him

Something special that you'd like to hear?
He wanted the old man to choose a meaningful song

When he looked up at me he was smiling
The old man smiled at Owen's offer

Oh, but his eyes couldn't hide the tears.
However, Owen noticed that the old man was also emotional

He said, "Play me the waltz of the angels,
The old man requested this specific song

And I'll close my eyes and pretend.
He wanted to immerse himself in the memories associated with the song

Yes, that's the song I remember
The old man confirmed that this song held a special place in his heart

That's the one that she loved the best
The song was significant to the old man because it was his late wife's favorite

It was playing the night that I met her
The old man recalled that the song was playing when he first met his wife

And it was playing when we laid her to rest"
The song was also playing at his wife's funeral, making it bittersweet for him

Let me dance with my angel again
The old man longed to feel close to his late wife again through dancing to their favorite song
