Dancing on the Ceiling / Dancing in the Dark - Ray Conniff

He dances overhead on the ceiling near my bed

In my sight through the night

I try to hide in vain underneath my counterpane

There’s my love up above

I whisper, «Go away, my lover, it’s not fair»

But I’m so grateful to discover

He’s still there

I love my ceiling more since it is a dancing floor

Just for my love

Dancing in the dark

Till the tune ends we’re dancing in the dark

And it soon ends we’re waltzing in the wonder of why we’re here;

Time hurries by, we’re here and gone

And now we´re looking for the light of a new love

To brighten up the night, I have you, love

And we can face the music together

Dancing in the dark with you

I love my ceiling more since it is a dancing floor

Just for my love (dancing in the dark)

My love (dancing in the dark)

My love (dancing in the dark)

My love!
