Moments Of The Dance 1918 Kern

Oh dancing is a tonic
that sets you all aglow
like bubbles of carbonic
when wine begins to flow
and once the dance you've started
it's hard for you to stop,
you spin 'round
turning o'er the ground
just like a human top,
So let yourself just go,
you know when you hear the strain
you can't refrain

Faster and faster
as each step you master
in the moments of the dance,
you get much closer and closer
your fondness to show, sir,
for the moments of the dance,
then slyly and wily
your cheeks touch shyly
by the merest of chance
dearest let's dance,
old steps or new steps
don't matter you see,
when you dance a few steps with me.

[Dance:]
