Lyrics

There may be trouble ahead
But while there's moonlight, and music, and love, and romance
Let's face the music and dance
Before the fiddlers have fled
Before they ask us to pay the bill, and while we still have the chance
Let's face the music and dance
Soon, we'll be without the moon
Humming a different tune and then
There may be teardrops to shed
So while there's moonlight, and music, and love, and romance
Let's face the music and dance, dance
Let's face the music and dance
There may be teardrops to shed
So while there's moonlight, and music, and love, and romance
Let's face the music and dance, dance
Let's face the music and dance
So while there's moonlight, and music, and love, and romance
Let face the music and dance
Written by: Irving Berlin
