Dancing on the Ceiling/Dancing in the Dark Songtext
von 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!
