The sheet music:
Lyrics:
When there’s someone you hardly know
And wish you were closer to
Remember that he can be near to you
While you’re dancing
Though you’ve only just said “hello”
He’s suddenly someone who
Can make all your daydreams appear to you
While your dancing
Make the music weave a spell
Whirl away your worry
Thing look almost twice as well
When they’re slightly blurry!
As around and around you go
Your spirits will hit the top
and now that we’re dancing
Who cares if we ever stop!
