I went to dance in the world
She was there
Lights in her eyes
And the rising air o
And the music whisper chances new
The night I danced with you

The band was playing spence out here
Couldn't hear them
I had my fear
Of all the sad old songs I knew
The night I danced with you

I danced with the world
And the world danced with me
Paving the pride of the world? Free
And the world held my hand
And the love came true
The night I danced with you

I could have waited,
But I was bolder
Could have looked behind my shoulder,
But I found my home
My love so true the night I danced with you
Danced with the world
And the world danced with me
Paving the pride of the world? Free
And the world held my hand
And the love came true
The night I danced with you

Oh, danny boy
The popsicle and the lonesome? Of listen
How about for just one night
We whisper! Let's now listen!

And I danced with the world
And the world danced with me
Paving the pride of the world? Free
And the world held my hand
And the love came true
The night I danced with you
The night I danced with youuuu
