"Dancing" lyrics
Michael Crawford & Barbra Streisand Lyrics
"Dancing"
(from "Hello, Dolly!" soundtrack)
Put your hand on her waist and stand
With her right in your left hand
And one... This one. And one, two, three... Ah! And one, two, three... Oh no, this one. And one, two, three, one, two, three
Look! I'm dancing!
Well, I was!
Of course you were, Mr. Hackle!
Take the someone whose arms you're in
Hold onto her tight and spin (ha-ha)
And one, two, three, one, two, three, one, two, three
Look! I'm dancing!
Ah! Come here!
Turn around and turn around, try floating through the air
Can't you be a little more aesthetic?
Don't you think my dancing has a polish and a flair?
The word I think I'd use is athletic
Well, my heart is about to burst
My head is about to pop
And now that I'm dancing who cares if I ever stop?
That's wonderful
Look everybody! I, Cornelius Hackl, sport, I'm dancing!
You're next, Mr. Tucker
Oh!
Glide and step, and then step
And glide
And everyone stand aside!
Oh, not... not yet, Mr. Tucker. It's one, two, three, one, two, three, one, two, three, one
Look! He's dancing!
I think he's holdin' out on us
You could learn to polka if you worked a week of so
Or the tango filled with passion seething
I might join the chorus of the Castle Garden show
Whatever you do, Mr. Tucker, keep-keep breathing!
For my heart is about to burst
My head is about to pop
And now that we're dancing who cares if we ever stop?
Oh!
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
She's suddenly someone who
Can make all your daydreams appear to you while you're dancing
Let the music weave a spell
Whirl away your worry
Things 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 cared if we ever stop?
One, two, three, one, two, three
One, two, three, one, two, three
And now that we're dancing who cared if we ever stop?
Thanks to Greg Smith for correcting these lyrics.

Commodores - "Still" Lady, morning's just a moment away
And I'm without you once again
You laughed at me
You said you never needed me
I wonder if you need me now So many dreams that flew away
So many words we didn't say...
Barry Gibb - "Too Much Heaven" Nobody gets too much heaven no more
It's much harder to come by
I'm waiting in line
Nobody gets too much love anymore
It's as high as a mountain
And harder to climb
Oh, you and me girl
Got a lot of...
Sheena Easton - "Almost Over You" I saw an old friend of ours today
She asked about you, I didn't quite know what to say
Heard you've been making the rounds 'round here
While I've been trying to make tears disappear

I would only be in your way
So I'll go but I know

My darling, you
