The Big Chill movie - A Whiter Shade Of Pale lyrics

rate me

Song by Procol Harum<br /><br>

We skipped the light fandango <br>

Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor <br>

I was feeling kinda seasick <br>

But the crowd called out for more <br>

The room was humming harder <br>

As the ceiling flew away <br>

When we called out for another drink <br>

The waiter brought a tray <br>

<br>

And so it was that later <br>

As the miller told his tale <br>

That her face, at first just ghostly, <br>

Turned a whiter shade of pale<br>

She said: "There is no reason <br>

And the truth is plain to see."<br>

But I wandered through my playing cards <br>

And would not let her be <br>

One of sixteen vestal virgins <br>

Who were leaving for the coast <br>

And although my eyes were open <br>

They might have just as well've been closed <br>

<br>
