Letra

Bed, bed I couldn't go to bed

My head's too light to try to set it 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've never done before

I'll never know what made it so exciting Why 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

It's after three now Don't you agree now? She ought to be in bed

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've never done before

I'll never know what made it so exciting Why 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

I understand dear It's all been grand dear But now it's time to sleep

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've never done before

I'll never know what made it so exciting Why 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.<ref>Letra MetroLyrics. Consultado el 16 de mayo de 2018<ref>
