Lyrics

Dancing In the Dark
Artie Shaw
From The Band Wagon
Dancing in the dark
Till the tune end
Were dancing in the dark
And it soon ends
Were waltzing in the wonder
Of why were here;
Time hurries by
Were here and gone
Looking for the light
Of a new love
To brighten up the night
I have you to love
And we can face the music together;
Dancing in the dark
What though love is old?
What though song is old?
Through them we can be young
Hear this heart of mine
Make yours part of mine
Dear one, tell me that were one!
Dancing in the dark!
Written by: Arthur Schwartz, Howard Dietz
