New York Medley: Let's Say Goodbye / Teach Me to Dance Like Grandma / We Were Dancing / Sigh No More / Ziguener / You Were There / Nevermore

歌詞

Let our affair be a gay thing And when these hours have flown, Then, without forgetting happiness that is past There'll be no regretting fun that didn't quite last. Let's look on love as a plaything, All these sweet moments we've known Mustn't be degraded When the thrill of them has faded, Let's say goodbye and leave it alone. Teach me to dance Like grandma used to dance, I refuse to dance— Blues, Blackbottoms, Charlestons—what wind blew them in? Monkeys do them in Zoos. Back in the past the dancing singified Just a dignified Glow. They didn't have to be so strong, Though they revolved the whole night long. Teach me to dance like grandma used to dance Sixty summers ago. We were dancing, And the gods must have found it entrancing, For they smiled On a moment undefiled By the care and woe that mortals know— We were dancing, And the music and lights were enhancing our desire. When the world caught on fire, She and I were dancing. Sigh no more, sigh no more, Great clouds of sorrow fill the sky no more. Joy is your troubador. Sweet and beguiling ladies, sigh no more, Sigh no more, Sweet and beguiling ladies, sigh no more. Play to me beneath the Summer moon, Zigeuner, Zigeuner, Zigeuner! Now you have me in your power, Play to me for just an hour, Zigeuner! You were there, Your eyes looked into mine and faltered. Everywhere, the colour of the whole world altered, False became true, My universe tumbled in two, The earth became heaven for you were there. Nevermore. Nevermore, Can life be quite the same. The light and shadows change, All the old familiar world is strange, Evermore, evermore, Our hearts are in the flame. Others may regain their freedom, But for you and me, Never, never, more Though our worlds may go awry, Though the years my tears may dry, I shall love you till I die, Out in the midday, Out in the midday, Out in the midday, Out in the midday, Out in the midday, Out in the midday, Out in the midday sun! Play to me beneath the Summer moon, Zigeuner, Zigeuner, Zigeuner! All I ask of life Is just to listen to the songs that you sing, My spirit like a bird on the wing, Your melodies adoring, Soaring! Call to me with some barbaric tune, Zigeuner, Zigeuner, Zigeuner! Now you have me in your power, Play to me for just an hour Zigeuner Let our affair be a gay thing And when these hours have flown, Then without forgetting happiness that is past There'll be no regretting fun that didn't quite last Let's look on love as a plaything All these sweet moments we've known Mustn't be degraded When the thrill of them has faded Let's say goodbye and leave it alone Teach me to dance like grandma used to dance, I refuse to dance blues Blackbottoms, Charlestons, what wind blew them in Monkeys do them in zoos Back in the past the dancing singified Just a dignified glow They didn't have to be so strong Though they revolved the whole night long Teach me to dance like grandma used to dance Sixty summers ago We were dancing And the gods must have found it entrancing For they smiled On a moment undefiled By the care and woe that mortals know We were dancing And the music and lights were enhancing our desire When the world caught on fire She and I were dancing Sigh no more, sigh no more Great clouds of sorrow fill the sky no more Joy is your troubador Sweet and beguiling ladies, sigh no more, Sigh no more Sweet and beguiling ladies, sigh no more Play to me beneath the Summer moon, Zigeuner, Zigeuner, Zigeuner! Now you have me in your power, Play to me for just an hour Zigeuner You were there Your eyes looked into mine and faltered Everywhere the colour of the whole world altered False became true My universe tumbled in two The earth became heaven for you were there Nevermore. Nevermore, Can life be quite the same. The light and shadows change, All the old familiar world is strange, Evermore, evermore, Our hearts are in the flame. Others may regain their freedom, But for you and me, Never, never, more Though our worlds may go awry Though the years my tears may dry I shall love you till I die Out in the midday Out in the midday Out in the midday Out in the midday Out in the midday Out in the midday Out in the midday sun!
