Lyrics Celtic Woman – Ballroom Of Romance
Text:
On summer nights when the barn is high
The stars are twinkling in the sky
Take a walk by the riverside
And let the music be your guide
Follow where the pathway takes you
On your bike or arm in arm
Through the crossroad, to the dance hall
Down the road to Murphy’s barn
We plant the seeds and till the soil
We pray for rain and pray for sun
Now it’s time to stop a while
Forget your worries everyone
Once the barn was full of grain
Then old Murphy took the chance
Cleaned it out and hired a band
Now it’s the ballroom of romance
Whack for the danna, swing your partner
Leave your troubles at the door
We will dance until the morning light
Come take my hand and we’ll take the floor
Whack for the danna, swing your partner
Around the floor, now one two three
We will dance until the break of dawn
So take my hand and dance with me
The week is over, work is done
So now it’s time to have some fun
The place is old and there’s money owed
Tonight forget that heavy load
The sky is clear, without a cloud
The air, it hums with music loud
They’ll come from far and wide tonight
Will I get to steal a dance
With the one who puts me in a trance?
Now, at least, you get to dance
Down at the ballroom of romance
Whack for the danna, swing your partner
Leave your troubles at the door
We will dance until the morning light
Come take my hand and we’ll take the floor
Whack for the danna, swing your partner
Around the floor, now one two three
We will dance until the break of dawn
So take my hand and dance with me
Shined his boots and combed his hair
Chosen something fine to wear
By cap and glove, could this be love?
Is there magic in the air?
The one that chases every day
Now is lost for words to say
To the girl in the flowing dress
This night they never will forget
Whack for the danna, swing your partner
Leave your troubles at the door
We will dance until the morning light
Come take my hand and we’ll take the floor
Whack for the danna, swing your partner
Around the floor, now one two three
We will dance until the break of dawn
So take my hand and dance with me
Whack for the danna, swing your partner
Leave your troubles at the door
We will dance until the morning light
Come take my hand and we’ll take the floor
Whack for the danna, swing your partner
Around the floor, now one two three
We will dance until the break of dawn
So take my hand and dance with me
