I Could Have Danced All Night

Bed? bed -- i couldn't go to bed

My head's too light to try to settle down

Sleep? sleep -- i couldn't sleep tonight

Not for all the jewels in the crown!



I could have danced all night

I could have danced all night

And still have begged for more

I could have spread my wings

And done a thousand things

I'd never done before

I'll never know what made it so exciting

When all at once my heart took flight

I only know when he began to dance with me

I could have danced, danced, danced..all night





Bubba: it's after three now

Don't you agree now

She ought to be in bed

Lauren: i could've danced...

B: your time is up

L: all night...

B: you must be dead

L: i could have danced...

B: your face is drawn

L: all night...

B: your eyes are red

L: and still...

B: now say goodnight

L: have begged...

B: please, turn out the light

L: for more.

B: please, it's really time for you to be in bed

L: i could have spread...

B: just come along

L: my wings...

B: do as you're told

L: and done a thousand...

B: or mr. finch

L: things

B: is apt to scold

L: i'd nev-

B: you're up too late

L: -er done...

B: please, i'm sure it's late

L: before.

B: please, or as sure as fate you'll catch a cold

L: i'll never know what made it so exciting

When all at once my heart took flight

I only know

B: put down that book

L: when he...

B: the book can keep

L: began to dance...

B: now settle down

L: with me...

B: and go to sleep

L: i could have...

L & b: ...danced, danced, danced...all night.
