lyrics

The glass shows light
On the Moon lit night
There’s frost upon the panes
As we hug the shadows
The doorway yawns
Lets out bits of song
About rum and sugar cane
Down the halls they echo

First dance, fast dance
Fills the wooden floor
Slow dance, slim chance
With the one that you adore

Above our heads
In crepe and red
A fantasy delight
Romance as paper flowers
A teenage dream
Of finer things
To lift the common night
As we climb the higher hours

Next dance, best chance
Can’t untie your tongue
Last dance, last chance
But out the night had run
