June Tabor - The Dancing lyrics

rate me

Saturday night at the Adam Smith Hall

The couples all move to the dance master's call

Tonight they've no problems, no worries at all

The dancing's the dancing tonight

But, oh, Monday morning it comes round too soon

The sound of the flax mill, the beat of the loom

But tonight the band's playing a romantic tune

The dancing's the dancing tonight

Her partner is perfect, he's light on his feet

The footwork is graceful, perhaps they might meet

By chance by the auld kirk or on Hunter Street

On the way to the Adam Smith hall

Walking home late by Kirkcaldy's sea wall

The sea looks so big, the sky is so tall

The fate of two people can't matter at all

Just a waltz in three quarter time
